Testing the water at the rock pool
A change of pace

An invitation to explore.

On horseback, by 4x4 or on foot, we cross remote corners of Córdoba to private destinations where the sierra becomes the setting: the table set by the river, the fire, the long lunch after.

Gastronomy

The Carahuasi Table

Food at Carahuasi is part of the experience. We cook with fresh produce from our own garden and our own Blackface lamb, served wherever the day takes us: by the river, with a view over the sierras, or at the lodge. Join us in the kitchen if you’d like to learn how to make empanadas or fresh pasta.

Between expeditions

And in between, the slow part.

Between one expedition and the next, Carahuasi offers more: rest in the park, cool off in the pool looking out at the sierras, a wine tasting, or a night of live chamamé.
