El Bosque Andino en el otoño - Elida O. de Trotta But... without snow the activity doesn't end! The rest of the year one can enjoy the magnificence of the lenga wood out walks on foot or to horse, or to reach the summit and to enjoy the spectacular transition landscape among the Patagonian Andean Forest and the Steppe, or to sight the abundant birds fauna that inhabits the Mountain range.

In the autumn, other spectacle... the lengas bleeds with their characteristic reddish color and the polichromy of green, ochres, yellows, of the season starts, offering an unforgettable natural show to our view.
