Private flights to Estancia Rincón del Socorro, Esteros del Iberá, Corrientes

Estancia Rincón del Socorro is one of Argentina's most exclusive nature lodges, in the heart of the Iberá Wetlands, Corrientes. Access is by air to its private strip; no land alternative matches it for time or comfort. A pioneering Iberá rewilding property within the conservation legacy of Douglas Tompkins.

Experiences

The Iberá Wetlands are among the planet's largest. On the private reserve, jaguar, tapir, peccary, giant anteater and marsh deer coexist in an active reintroduction programme. Wildlife viewing by boat or horseback, fly fishing on virgin lagoons and sunsets over the esteros form an experience without continental equal.

Accommodation

The estancia offers superior lodge: restored 1896 main house, individual bungalows, author cuisine from organic gardens and guides specialised in Corrientes wildlife. Capacity intentionally limited to preserve exclusivity and quality.

Dining

Corrientes tradition —rib asado, starch chipá, reviro and field stews— with contemporary cooking incorporating dorado, surubí and pacú. Northern Argentine and NEA wines accompany a table centred on local produce and field meats.

Why fly private

Rincón del Socorro has a private strip with no scheduled commercial service. From San Fernando (FDO), from 1 h 25 min in executive turboprop and somewhat longer in piston aircraft, landing directly on the estate without intermediate transfers. For a destination whose value is privacy and disconnection, private flight is part of the experience itself.

Best time to visit

Dry season April to October preferred for wildlife: animals concentrated by lagoons and estate tracks in better condition. July and August coolest for extended horseback rides. Wet season (November–March) raises water levels and opens remote areas by boat.
