The municipality where the property is located is naturally protected from the winds. The geography of the area is of extraordinary beauty. The town is almost hidden within a sumptuous mountain amphitheater, surrounded by woods and lakes.

The town is set in a natural landscape characteristic of the humid Patagonian Andes: mountains covered with forests (“colihue”, “pires”, oaks and cypresses), crystal-clear streams and great biodiversity. The quality of the environment is incomparable. The inhabitants enjoy the wonderfully pure air of this town surrounded by woods.
You will appreciate the tranquility of its great green expanses and of the Lanín National Park (the largest in the province of Neuquén: 383,612 hectares).

The famous “corridor” and the Lanín National Park are the most impressive attractions of the area. Here you will enjoy the snow in winter and adventure tourism in summer, always in direct contact with nature.
