If you like horses and riding, or even just the idea of horses and riding, you should consider treating yourself on your visit to the Argentina countryside. Stay at El Colibri and learn how to ride, or take in a polo match at any of their four polo fields. They have dozens and dozens of horses on the ranch and programs for riders of all levels of experience…including those who’ve only ever read about horses!
The rooms are stunning antique, which means you’ll find yourself in one of nine guest rooms an suites decked out in a mix of contemporary country antiques, a fireplace, and ultimate luxury. The main lounge has twenty-five foot ceilings and a huge open fireplace where you can relax and warm your hands as you gaze out at stunning views of Cordoba Mountain.
If you don’t want to take part in equestrian activities, you can whittle the hours away at a poolside pink stone deck. Or, of course with all the mountains in the region, you can go for some of the best hiking you’ll ever experience. The views here are simply stunning, with panoramic vistas in every direction and sweeping swathes of undeveloped, unspoiled country fields, hills, and plateaus.
There are miles and miles of trails withing a short distance of El Colibri and you won’t run out of hiking destinations while you visit this lavish estate. There are three golf courses near this estancia, as well as opportunities to take tango lessons and take part in some bona-fide gaucho ranching activities. This is the real Argentina countryside, and there is no place else on earth like it.
