We have a mix of Arabian, Quarter Horse, Chilean, Criollo, Thoroughbred, and traditional working horses.<\/p><p>Horses remain a fundamental part of local culture, with the Chilean breed standing as a national pride. Patagonian horses are calm, brave, and perfectly adapted to the climate. Tireless and sure-footed on any terrain, they will take you to remote places where few are privileged to go.<\/p><p>Ours are intelligent, full of personality, and highly resilient.<br \/>Their welfare is our absolute priority. Despite the challenges of living in such an isolated environment, they receive regular care from several veterinarians, as well as from an equine dentist and a farrier.<\/p><p>Each horse follows a dedicated process of recovery, training, and adaptation before being ridden by our guests. We give them the time they need to develop their physical and mental condition, regain their serenity, and fully thrive in their work. At this stage, we know them deeply and trust them completely.<\/p><p>When not working, they live freely in vast open fields, grazing and moving as a herd, just as a horse should live.
