Los Lingues

Hacienda Los Lingues, in English Los Lingues Ranch, is located in Chile’s Central Valley 78 miles south of Santiago. Currently dedicated to the hotel business.

Family member Germán Claro Lyon is the general manager.

The hacienda operates a horse breeding farm with horses of the Aculeo breed. Their horses were used by Rosie Swales in 1984, when she rode the entire length of Chile as described in her book “Back to Cape Horn.” (The book provides additional history of the Hacienda.) Visitors can ride similar horses at the Hacienda, with a guide. The Hacienda is open for day visitors, group events, and overnight guests.
