Parque Luro Provincial Reserve
Near the city of Santa Rosa, a cultural heritage awaits you in a life reserve.
Can you imagine a protected area of seven thousand six hundred hectares? Discover it in the Parque Luro Provincial Reserve. Walk around and admire its history in El Castillo Museum, declared a National Historic Monument. Visit its manor house built more than a century ago, which still preserves its original design and furniture. Visit the tambo [milking shed] and the carriage room. Walk along trails where vestiges of the native populations and their worldview are hidden.
Step into the forest, explore paths and become part of a world of flora and fauna. Follow the footprints of pumas and deer, foxes and wild boars. Admire more than one hundred and sixty bird species that live in the place. And, among the caldenes, during March and April, let a unique show of nature surprise you: the red deer that compete for the females in the rutting season. Live the experience in the province of La Pampa.
