Overview
EXPERIENCE THE WIDE-OPEN HOSPITALITY OF A TRADITIONAL ARGENTINE ESTANCIA
Estancia Huechahue (pronounced "way-cha-way") is a working cattle ranch in Argentine Patagonia. Four generations of the Wood family have worked on the 15,000 acres of Patagonian Steppe to produce a self-sufficient oasis and thriving cattle operation. Today Jane Wood Williams runs the estancia and has been welcoming guests since 1990.
Life at Huechahue is always an adventure, often involving horses. Patagonia is unfeasibly beautiful, rugged and wild. Huechahue maintains traditional values and customs while welcoming visitors into a unique world where horses and cattle still roam free and food is home grown.
Working cattle on horseback is challenging and fun and brings out the gaucho spirit lurking in everyone!
Huechahue is not a dude ranch - it is the real thing! When working cattle, you start early in the mornings and days can be long, every animal must be found, every canyon and hilltop scouted, behind bushes or down creeks - but there is tremendous satisfaction when the job is done. The time of year determines what needs to be done but it can include round-ups, vaccinating, separating, branding, moving cattle and horses to new pastures. Herding horses at speed is magic! There are opportunities for lassoing enthusiasts and everyone is welcome to get involved with gaucho life.
