Our cavalcades
| Information to Mendoza
WELCOME
We live amid incredible surroundings: majestic mountains,
turbulent rivers, vineyards that fill the geography. We live
under an immense clear blue sky that not only makes us feel
small but shelters us.
It is not hard to work in what one likes doing. The contact
with people, nature and animals is stimulating. To organize
every detail so that each friend who visits us is surprised
not only by the scenery but also by the service we offer; this
activity is carried out naturally, giving the best of
ourselves. All our efforts are aimed at turning each program
into a unique and different experience
There are no barriers to cross, the horses are saddled, the
“mate” tea is waiting, you have stepped through our front
door.
Welcome to Mendoza.

OUR
CAVALCADES
Throughout our history, the link between man and horse has
always been present. There is no better example of this to
illustrate the importance of these animals, together with the
mules, were perhaps the indispensable tool for the epic
Crossing of the Andes by General Don José de San Martín and
his brave Grenadiers.
Nowadays,
horses continue to be an indispensable element in the farmer's
daily life. Horses allow him to carry out tasks that would be
impossible to do without it and allows him to move and reach
places where no vehicle can arrive at, nor where he can reach
on foot.
The aim of our
cavalcades is
to revalue the historical link between man and
horse, our history and tradition. We cannot separate Mendoza's
history from General San Martín's exploit: this province
vibrates with his name in streets, squares and many names that
keep the name of people and events related with the Army of the Andes
and its Crossing.
Each
program aims at joining activities with rural customs, history
and adventure, where each participant takes an active part by
meeting people of different ages, social and cultural
conditions.
