  Description

  [Please respond to host in Spanish]
  
  Hello, we are Lucas and Gisela, we are at km 30 of provincial route 2, between El Soberbio and the Moconá falls, at the doors of the Yaboti Reserve. Our neighbors are families of settlers from Brazil, dedicated mainly to family farming, production of essences such as citronella, and people from other regions captivated by the natural beauty of the landscape, so there is great cultural diversity.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Know the mix of cultures, since it is a border area, and both Spanish and Portuguese are spoken. Meals and drinks typical of the region. Interact with the jungle environment, its flora and fauna. Among the activities are bird watching, as we have more than 500 species of birds, which represent more than half of the entire Argentine Republic.
