Experiencies in Nature
✽ To Inhabit the Sanctuary
Connection With Nature
Our experiences are designed for those seeking more than just enjoying a landscape. We invite you to immerse yourself in the heartbeat of the central mountain ranges of the province of San Luis, where time is measured in natural cycles, and each step is an opportunity to relearn our relationship with the web of life.
All of our activities take place within the Nature Reserve Quebrada del Palmar. For a more comfortable and complete experience, we offer comprehensive options with accommodation included in San Francisco del Monte de Oro. Contact us to coordinate your stay in this sacred corner of San Luis.
✽ Connection With Nature
Mountain Valley Bath
Contemplative hiking and recognition of native flora through a journey that allows the connection with our senses. Learn to read the trail of water, to recognise the aroma of medicinal plants, and to understand the web of life that sustains the mountain valley, while enjoying relaxation and connection practices.
This experience can take from 1 day to 4 days, depending on the time of the year.
✽ Sightseeing and Conservation
The Condor Flight
We join together for the flight of the guardians of the sky. Through a walk in the Nature Reserve Quebrada del Palmar, you will be able to observe the family of condors living in the Sanctuary. You will also learn more about the functioning of the Biological Station, our monitoring work, and the vital importance of protecting the Andean condor's home.
An experience to expand our perspective and commitment to the Earth.
✽ Synchrony with the Earth
Reconnection Retreats
Retreats designed to let go of the clock and to return to the body. Combining practices aligned with integration and direct contact with the mountain valley, we create a space to remember our bond with life and to understand that the health of the earth is our own health.
We also deeply explore the understanding of the Chakana through our Lunisolar Calendar.

Conscious Visitor Information
Our reserve is located in the heart of the central mountain ranges of the province of San Luis, Argentina. It is a protected area where the native mountain valley is preserved in its purest state.
To ensure the tranquility of the ecosystem and protected species, such as the Andean condor, we share the exact location and the coordinates once the visit or experience is confirmed.
To comfortably and respectfully inhabit the mountain valley, we recommend bringing:
Footwear: Trekking shoes or sports footwear in good condition—there is rocky ground.
Protection: Hat or cap, and sunscreen—preferably conscious or biodegradable ones.
Hydration: A reusable water bottle—we avoid entry of single-use plastics.
Clothing: Comfortable and layered clothing—in the mountains, the weather can change quickly.
Openness: A notebook for taking notes and willingness towards silence and observation.
In Árbol del Sur, we believe that your presence is not neutral; it is regenerative. Each visitor’s contribution is allocated directly to:
Active Conservation: It supports the Andean condor monitoring and the protection of acres of native mountain valley against fires and invasive species.
Educational Infrastructure: It funds the construction of our School of Ancient Roots of the Earth, providing ancient and craft knowledge with a physical space.
Local Economy: It promotes a development model that values the natural and cultural heritage of San Luis, showing that it is possible to inhabit the world while taking care of life.
