In February 2026, marking the Year of the Horse, equine-focused travel and wellness are gaining popularity, with Las Torres Patagonia in Chile’s Torres del Paine National Park offering an authentic connection to traditional Patagonian horsemanship. The hotel, home to 150 freely grazing horses, is the only property in the park authorized to provide horseback experiences led by baqueanos—descendants of century-old cowboy traditions. Guests can engage in the Baqueano Cultural Experience, learning about horse care, traditional tack, and local customs like sharing yerba mate tea, as well as enjoy guided rides through the stunning Patagonian landscape tailored to various skill levels.

Las Torres Patagonia emphasizes sustainable and responsible tourism, employing a holistic planned grazing system certified by the Savory Institute to protect the park’s environment while ensuring horse welfare. Open from October to April, the reserve offers immersive, educational, and low-impact equine activities that blend cultural heritage with nature conservation. Rates start at £1,755 per person for a two-night all-inclusive stay, providing travelers a unique opportunity to experience Patagonia’s natural beauty and cowboy culture in an eco-conscious setting.
