Our intention is not limited to show the impressive beauties and immensity of the, almost unknown, North Neuquén. On the contrary, our desire goes further, because we know that the true potential lies in the culture that crosses each of these landscape wonders.
We emphasize the cordiality and sympathy of the transhumant that tempts us to listen to their stories and their way of life abysmally different from ours, but so valid and consolidated that has established an entire community that deserves to be known. In each of the 5 established and offered tours, we can count on a visit to some of them to talk and intimate details of their lifestyle and share some delicious mates with fried cakes.

One of the routes with more surprises and beauties of the North Neuquino, reason for which the time of travel is usually exceeded.

Then it passes through different valleys that are watered by multiple waterfalls that come from the highest peaks to form the Neuquén River but not before crossing different fords that add to the journey a true adventure. After traveling about 80 km through the cajón formed by the Andes and the Wind, you will reach the source of the Neuquén River, which will amaze you for the very little water it forms. A few km further on, the route ends at the Varvarco Campos and Tapia lagoons with the Domuyo volcano as a backdrop.
