Sustainability isn’t simply part of the experience at Rincón del Socorro – it is the reason the lodge exists. The former cattle ranch was transformed into a conservation lodge as part of one of South America’s most ambitious rewilding projects, with tourism helping to fund the restoration of the Iberá wetlands and the protection of its wildlife.

• Conservation-led tourism – Every stay helps support the work of Rewilding Argentina, contributing to the restoration of ecosystems and the long-term protection of the Iberá wetlands.
• Pioneering rewilding – The project has successfully reintroduced locally extinct species including jaguars, giant anteaters, giant otters, red-and-green macaws and pampas deer, helping to restore the region’s natural balance.
• Supporting local communities – The lodge provides employment, works with local suppliers and encourages sustainable livelihoods, ensuring tourism delivers lasting benefits to surrounding communities.
• Low-impact operations – Guest numbers are intentionally kept low, allowing for intimate wildlife encounters while minimising disturbance to the surrounding environment.
• Locally sourced cuisine – Menus showcase fresh, seasonal ingredients from Corrientes, supporting regional producers and celebrating the area’s culinary traditions.
