HOW TO GET HERE

The Estancia El Ombú de Areco is located in San Antonio de Areco, core of the gaucho tradition. Areco is only an hour away from Buenos Aires city, which makes it a convenient and comfortable destination for those who live in or visit the city.

How to get to San Antonio de Areco from Buenos Aires city?

  • Panamericana, Pilar branch, which becomes Route 8
  • At km 110 (roundabout), turn right (route 41, paved) and drive 5 km
  • Turn right again on Route 31 (where you see the sign indicating the direction to the Estancia and the “Parque Industrial”) and drive 6 km until the entrance to the Estancia, on the right side.

By Car:

Take “Panamericana Acceso Norte”, Pilar branch. It’ll become “Ruta Nacional 8”, follow it up to the roundabout on km. 110. Take the roundabout and turn right on the first exit heading to Route 41 (paved road) towards Baradero, for 5 Km. When you reach the junction with Provincial Route 31 you’ll see the sign that indicates the direction to the Estancia and “Parque Industrial Areco”. There, you must turn right again and take Route 31. The 1st. km until the “Parque industrial” is paved, and the remaining 5 km are dirt road.
