- Every year in September, a growing colony of friendly Magellanic penguins settle in El Pedral. A guided walk among their nests will allow you to get to know these curious animals better. El Pedral supports a beach control and cleaning scheme, also collaborating with the GPS foundation (Global Penguin Society), which monitors the Punta Ninfas Magellan penguin colony.
- Just 15 minutes from the estancia, on top of the cliff at the southern end of the mouth of the Golfo Nuevo, is the Punta Ninfas lighthouse. A valuable reference point for sailors entering the New Gulf, it also fulfills its faithful task of watching over the arrival of the first whales to the Gulf each year, on the cold days of May. The view from the cliff of the Punta Ninfas lighthouse will make you feel privileged, part of a different, magical and incredible landscape.
- Stay: Authentic Patagonian farmhouse, the house of El Pedral is as attractive for its history as for its particular design. Built at the beginning of the 20th century, the materials and furniture were brought from Europe by boat and landed on the shores of the estancia itself. Inaugurated in 1923, the house preserves the aesthetics and style of those times, evoking a glorious time of intrepid entrepreneurs, undisputed pioneers of the development of the Valdés Peninsula.
