We love animals, but the site is unfortunately not suitable for pets. They may run into wildlife or the unfriendly dogs of the neighbouring gauchos.
Because of the steep terrain and the remoteness of the site, walking and horse-riding excursions are not suitable for elderly guests or people with a physical disability. We reserve the right to refuse access to an excursion where there is an evident risk to the participant's health. We advise visitors to consult their doctor if they have the slightest doubt about whether their health allows a stay in the Yungas.
The Yungas can be visited all year round.
