During the afternoon, we will be picked up to go to El Galpón del Glaciar and have a rural afternoon experience. We will be received at the front desk of El Galpón with country pastry and hot beverages for teatime.
After we enjoyed this meal, we will watch a sheep herding done by Gauchos on the horse and, with the labor and help from Kelpies dogs. Once finished, we will start a relaxing guided walk through the Natural Reserve next to Laguna de los Pájaros and Lago Argentino, two of the main lakes of this zone.
