The Estancia
Fly Fishing
Activities
Tipiliuke is a special spot at the foot of the Andes mountain range, in the middle of Lake District – Patagonia, just a few kilometers from the city of San Martín de los Andes (10 min. drive from Chapelco airport) where you can enjoy the diversity of fly fishing and other outside tailor made activities year-round as well as authentic refined country-style cuisine and knowledgeable personalized assistance.

Tipiliuke is part of the 20,000 hectare Cerro de los Pinos country estate founded in 1909 by the grandfather of the current owners. Since it is still a fully working farm guests can participate in harnessing the animals and take part in other rural tasks with the farm workers, or just relax in the beautiful surroundings. The tree sanctuary, unique in the province due to its size and wide diversity of tree species, is a magic place as is the 6 hectare tree nursery surrounded by the crystalline waters of the Chimehuín and Quilquihue rivers.

New: Natutal Pool by the Chimehuín River

Tipiliuke's guests enjoy now a new natural pool by the Chimehuín river.

Patagonian Character: Mary Jo Gahan, a Perfect Hostess

"Everything happens for a reason". I can´t think of a more accurate words to describe the change of worksI went through: from teaching to running a lodge, thecircumstances that influenced this change: following the love of my life (Kevin) nd the most enriching outcome I can think of: hosting amzing peoplefrom all over the world that have contributed in every sense to make my life and that of my family so eich and entretaining1

We moved to San Martín de los Andes, as soon as we got married 22 years ago and brought up three wonderful sons. We've been at Tipiliukefor 16 years and have enjoyed every single minute of it. We are happy when we know that guests have had an unforgettable experience and are counting the days to come back!!!
