The Last Frontier

,Estancia Laguna Sofia This ranch with over 5.000 hectares belongs to Jose Antonio & Tamara, descendants of legendary Croatian and Scottish settlers who came here to start a new life in this southern land. They have started a new project, full of adventure and great landscapes, a perfect mix for horse lovers. Their country house, with room for up to 8 guests, is located near a waterfall and on the shore of Lake Sofia. It is a comfortable place with a huge fireplace perfect to enjoy a Pisco Sour after a day of riding. Gaucho's hut (Puesto) A “puesto” is a hut that the Gauchos use during the summer time, when they have to take care of the cattle herds away from the main Estancia house. These simple huts are warm shelters to escape the occasional inclement weather in Patagonia. It’s a great place for cooking and enjoying a mate (local tea) around a fire. Usually located in a strategic location, close to a water source and protected from the strong winds. We will be able to sleep in one of these characteristic Patagonian huts, or camp beside it. Estancia/Posada Tres Pasos Hotel Posada Tres Pasos, since 1904, originated thanks to the efforts made by pionners of Ultima Esperanza Province. Little by little, the Hotel transformed in a compulsory pass for the long carts and carriage convoys on their way from Puerto Natales to Torres del Paine and Argentina. This Historical place, surrounded by impressive mountains such as Castillo, Campana and Jorge Montt chain, transformed in a meeting and supplying centre, including the last surviving groups from the Aonikenk tribe (Tehuelches) that live in the area at that time. Located in the confluence of three valleys and near to Figueroa Lagoon, this beautiful place served as inspiration for the biggest writter our country had has, Nobel Prize for literature, Gabriela Mistral.
