Highlights

Authentic Patagonian Ranch Atmosphere: A century-old working sheep ranch with restored historic homes, antique décor, and a living link to gaucho traditions.
Spectacular Location & Views: Sweeping pampas landscapes and direct vistas of the Torres del Paine massif; among the best views outside the park itself.
Outstanding Farm-to-Table Dining: Estate-raised lamb, fresh greenhouse vegetables, and Chilean wines, served in a cosy dining room with mountain views.
Horseriding Adventures with Gauchos: Scenic rides for all levels, from gentle pampa outings to treks toward the Paine massif, guided by local horsemen.
Puma Research & Conservation Safari: Join researchers in the field to track pumas, learn about GPS collars, camera traps, and livestock protection dogs, and see how a working ranch is pioneering coexistence with Patagonia’s top predator.
Peaceful, Off-the-Grid Comfort: With fireplaces, lounges, and warm hospitality, the estancia offers tranquil seclusion after active days exploring Torres del Paine.

Excursions

The estancia offers a variety of excursions and activities for guests during their stay. Some of the highlights include:

Stargazing in Patagonian Skies: With virtually no light pollution, Cerro Guido offers incredible night skies. Guided stargazing sessions let you experience the Milky Way and Southern Hemisphere constellations in complete silence.
Horse Riding Across the Pampas: Ride with gauchos through open grasslands and toward the Torres del Paine massif. Suitable for all levels, it’s one of the most authentic ways to experience Patagonia.
Cultural Ranch Experience: Step into estancia life – watch sheep shearing, meet skilled sheepdogs, and see how traditional Patagonian ranching is still practiced today.
Guided Hikes & Biking Adventures: Explore nearby trails by foot or bike. Choose a guided hike through lenga forests and rolling hills, or cycle across wide-open pampas and ridgelines for panoramic views of the Paine range. Often, you’ll have the trails entirely to yourself.
Wildlife & Birdwatching Tours: Spot guanacos, condors, foxes, and, if you’re lucky, pumas. Guides share insights into Patagonia’s unique ecosystems and conservation efforts.
Day Trips into Torres del Paine National Park: The estancia sits near the eastern entrance, making it an excellent base for exploring the park’s iconic sites, such as Laguna Azul, the Torres lookout, or Grey Glacier, on guided outings.

Conservation Safari & Puma Tracking

The puma research and conservation project at focuses on promoting coexistence between humans and pumas in Patagonia. Researchers use GPS collars, camera traps, and field observations to monitor puma movements, behaviour, and diet. The project tests non-lethal livestock protection strategies – such as guardian dogs (Great Pyrenees and Maremma), flashing deterrents, and improved fencing to reduce predation.

Beyond scientific study, the initiative combines education, community outreach, and ecotourism to support sustainable ranching, protect wildlife, and raise awareness, serving as a replicable model for wildlife-friendly farming across the region.
