Begin your day with a pickup from your hotel in El Calafate and head to Estancia Nibepo Aike, a historic working ranch surrounded by mountains, valleys, and native lenga forests.

Upon arrival, be warmly welcomed at the estancia with hot drinks and homemade pastries, setting the tone for an authentic countryside experience. During your visit, be introduced to daily rural life through guided activities that reflect the traditions of Patagonian sheep farming.

Take a walk around the historic buildings of the estancia, gain insight into livestock management, and watch a demonstration of sheep shearing when available, allowing you to better understand the cultural and productive heritage of the region. Throughout the day, local hosts and guides share explanations about the history of the estancia, the landscape, and the way of life that has been preserved over generations.

At midday, enjoy a traditional Patagonian lunch served at the estancia, centred around a classic lamb barbecue accompanied by salads, bread, drinks, and dessert. The meal is enjoyed in a relaxed rural setting, offering time to rest and take in the surroundings of the national park.

After lunch, enjoy free time to explore the area around the estancia, relax outdoors, or continue learning about the property and its environment at a leisurely pace. At the end of the visit, board the vehicle for the return journey to El Calafate, arriving back at your hotel in the afternoon after a complete and enriching day in the countryside.
