Far from mass tourism and near El Calafate is Nibepo Aike Ranch, a place that stores the essence of old Patagonian ranches. Nibepo Aike covers 12,000 ha and it is delimitated by the south branch of the Argentinean Lake and the border of Chile marked by the Andes range.
Dedicated to cattle production with a Hereford farm and many remains of great times for ovine production, this place is ideal to immerse in the lifestyle of an authentic Patagonian ranch.
During the journey it’s normal to see condors, foxes and hares in Cerro Frías as protagonists. After crossing Rio Rico, the scenery changes abruptly to turn into a cordillera landscape.
u will have a hot beverage (tea, coffee or mate) with homemade pastries
Hiking to see the south branch of the Argentinean Lake, and to discover varied rocky formations eroded by glacier action and the changes in the lake’s levels. After the hiking, we go to the door of the shearing barn. The whole process will be explained and scissors will be used to make a demonstration of the traditional way to shear. Afterwards we’ll proceed to do a “test of rein” with riders or farm labor in the stables close to the center, depending on the activities of the day.
