You will pass Huyliche and La Anita farmhouses where you can witness the getting of the wool from the sheep between November and March.

The humidity and flower growth will be in crescendo since you are getting closer to the mountain range. When getting into National Park Los Glaciares, the scenery turns rich in vegetation forming a forest of typical trees of the region such as ņires, notros, coihues, it's a quite area, away from the winds... a dreamed place.
