Estancia — Patagonia · Est. 1991
A valley the world forgot to find.
The only estancia on the banks of the Río Limay — days of steppe, rock and river, and a long lunch under the trees.

A hidden paradise where nature and stillness meet.
Between rock formations that catch the last of the sun and a river the colour of glass, Valle Encantado has stayed quiet on purpose. Come for a day or stay a while — every visit is shaped around you.
