Das Glück dieser Erde...

... liegt auf dem Rücken der Pferde. And that's how we ended up booking a 3 hour horse riding tour at Lago Roca. Only Franzi had experience riding a horse, so Daniel and Susanne weren't quite sure what they were getting themselves into. But we thought 'Why not'.

After a relatively relaxed morning we took a taxi to Camping Lago Roca where we pitched our tents and had lunch before going further to Estancia Nibepo Aike. Apart from us a French and a Swiss couple had booked the tour and before we could change our minds we were already sitting on top of Rafaela, Vanesa and Mancha. The perspective was a bit unsusal but after a few minutes it was very enjoyable. The horses were incredibly calm and did basically all the work. The weather and landscape were very nice and the experience of 'controlling' such a big animal was quite unique. Nonetheless, we were also a bit happy to get back on our feet and resting out sore butts when the 3 hours were over. We cooked dinner at the campsite and enjoyed the beautiful sky at sunset. Some really cool clouds here.Read more
