Estancia El Charabon, Rocha, Uruguay

Here you can become a ranch hand. But no wild west cowboy ever stayed in such comfort, ate as well, or enjoyed such beautiful countryside.

If you love horses and the great outdoors, you will be in your element at El Charabon. This is a working cattle ranch and sheep farm, surrounded by green plains and eucalyptus forests, rolling meadows and the impressive hills of Rocha. There’s even a beach within riding distance. So if you’ve always wanted to gallop a horse through the shallows, the spray swirling at your feet….

El Charabon fulfils other dreams too. Of tasting life on a working ranch, of helping the hands with cattle and sheep, of walking through divinely-scented forests, of experiencing fine dining in an elegant estancia-style dining room. Of relaxing and immersing yourself in a unique experience.
