Petrified Forest Private Trip

At the scheduled time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Barreal in an all-terrain jeep. First, we head to Calle de Los Enamorados, where we'll see the monument to Cupid.

After the stop, we'll drive into the Tontal foothills along a dry riverbed of an extinct river. Next, we will visit the bentonite mines, where paleontological remains are found.

From there, we'll proceed to the Petrified Forest, where fossilized ferns and trunks dating back thousands of years await. You'll learn about the origins of this phenomenon while enjoying a snack of traditional products.

We'll further explore the mountains, caves, and slopes of the Petrified Forest, a unique natural area in the Argentine province of San Juan, ideal for landscape photography.

Finally, we will return to your hotel in Barreal, arriving three hours after departure.
