You push through the gate at a Lunlunta stable and the country opens: rows of Malbec vines line dusty lanes, olive trees shade the track, and the dry bed of the Río Mendoza dares you to look downstream where foothills meet sky. Saddles creak, horses nudge for the path, and the rhythm of hooves becomes the day’s steady metronome.

You push through the gate at a Lunlunta stable and the country opens: rows of Malbec vines line dusty lanes, olive trees shade the track, and the dry bed of the Río Mendoza dares you to look downstream where foothills meet sky. Saddles creak, horses nudge for the path, and the rhythm of hooves becomes the day’s steady metronome.
This short, accessible ride sits in Southern Maipú—part of Mendoza’s long viticultural story that began with 19th-century irrigation projects and immigrant winemakers. The terrain is largely flat to rolling, alluvial soils layered over older Andean outwash; you’ll cross vine rows, country lanes and patches of riverbed that tell the region’s geological history in pebbles and braided channels. Culturally, the outing merges gaucho horsemanship with Mendoza’s modern winery hospitality: a 90-minute mounted loop concludes at Club Tapiz for a multi-course asado and matched wines.
Practically, expect a 45-minute transfer from central Mendoza, a guided ride of about 90 minutes suitable for beginners and experienced riders alike, then a leisurely lunch and tastings before returning around 5:30pm. Horses handle broken ground and vineyard tracks; guides set a pace to accommodate cantering for those comfortable with it.
Plan for sun and dust—bring layers, closed-toe shoes and a water bottle—and advise dietary needs at booking. The mix of riding, local history, and high-quality pairings makes this a compact, sensory introduction to Mendoza’s wine country.
