El Sosneado – 4×4 Experience Among Volcanoes, Rivers and Hot Springs from San Rafael
You will embark on a unique journey to the south of Mendoza province, where nature reveals its most rugged and fascinating side. Traveling in 4×4 vehicles, we will follow gravel roads along the Atuel River, surrounded by mountains, volcanoes, and stunning rock formations.
You will visit the town of El Sosneado and its mineral spring, then be amazed by the high-altitude Sosneado Lagoon, a natural mirror reflecting the grandeur of the Andes. The adventure continues to the ruins of the legendary hotel and its natural hot springs, where you’ll have free time to relax in warm waters embraced by mountain silence. Along the way, you’ll encounter native flora such as jarilla and algarrobo, as well as guanacos, foxes, and mountain birds. The day ends at a rustic mountain lodge, enjoying the authentic flavors of local cuisine.
At SAK Wine & Travel we are committed to preserving these landscapes for future generations. We work closely with local producers, promote water conservation, and prioritize low-impact experiences that respect both nature and culture.

Itinerary
What do you need for this tour?
Essential items
We suggest you to bring these items for personal use to make your excursion perfect:
- Small backpack.
- Extra mineral water.
- Personal care items (lip balm with sunscreen, sunscreen, antibacterial gel/wipes, insect repellent).
- Special clothing: comfortable clothing appropriate to the weather forecast and footwear suitable for the activity.
Safety tips: Inform the guide or driver about any illness, allergy or physical restriction. Remember to bring your medication and administration instructions.
Note: The best clothing for mountain activities is wool or synthetic materials in layers, as they dry quickly and keep warmth better. We suggest a base layer, then an intermediate layer, such as a light fleece coat or similar, and then a windproof and waterproof layer.
