The Goat Cottage

200 years ago
Wwhen the place was scrarcely inhabited, wild animal such as guanacos and ostriches, used to go to this place to drink water from the slope. There, they were hunted by the first inhabitants of these lands, “The Huarpes” indigenous peoples.

Perdriel is known for its important wineries, with recognized and awarded wines, which projects Luján de Cuyo as one of the best wine producers in the world.

FERIAGRO is an important camp in Luján for cultural, commercial and industrial events in Perdriel, where agricultural exhibitions are regularly held. Locals and tourists can also enjoy interesting shows of the typical Argentinean “gaucho” skills, concerts and other art events.

This place takes its importance as it becomes one of the centers of attraction during the Vintage Festival (Fiesta Nacional de la Vendimia. The celebration is really worth being part of as the audience can admire folkloric dances, listen to traditional music, and see colourful fireworks.

LUNLUNTA

Lunlunta welcomes its visitors through a way surrounded by old trees, offering the passer-by a broad spectrum of green colours show in the summer. In the fall this visual show displays the most varied gradation of green, golden and yellow colours.

There is a place called the “Goat cottage”, where tourists can taste a wide range of delicious meals and wines.

Driving farther to River Mendoza, we head to a Camping resort, “Baths of Lunlunta”, standing in the middle of wonderful landscape for visitors to enjoy.

A semi thermal water slope merges from the rocks and can be enjoyed in two swimming pools. The place has a particular microclimate: cool during summer and in winter time the water steam does not allow the decline of temperatures. Ferns, a great variety of flowers and other species of local flora are commonly appreciated in the area.
