Yungas Horseback Ride + Argentinian Barbecue
Description
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in San Salvador de Jujuy or Salta and make our way toward Finca la Fe, where we'll begin this horseriding activity.
Once we're there, we'll provide you with brief instructions - so don't worry if you haven't been horse riding before. Before long, you'll be ready to go!
For 2.5 hours, we'll walk through the trails of the mountainous jungle of northwestern Argentina. Along the way, we'll enjoy spectacular scenery and if we're lucky we'll also see some of the local wildlife.
We'll then return to Finca la Fe, where we'll say goodbye to the horses, and it'll be time to refuel with a delicious Argentinean barbecue. The meat, cooked over an open fire, will be accompanied by a glass of wine and fresh vegetables and potatoes from the Yungas.
After lunch, if you wish, you can go for a short walk along the marked trails of the finca. The driver will then pick you up and take you back to your hotel after a total of 6 hours.
Pickup
If you're not staying in a hotel in San Salvador de Jujuy or Salta, you have the option of going directly to Finca la Fe.
