I went to Tandil on holidays last february with my family. If you really enjoy being sorrounded by nature this is a perfect place.
There are a lot of people doing activities like walking and running. Also there are many places to visit like " El cerro Centinela", "La piedra movediza" or " el picapiedrero" full of lovely landscapes and activities such as climbing, tirolesa and other adventures.
In the central área of the city there are places where you should try "picadas", a tipical food there.
Lovely place, and nice people!

We went to the Centinela, crossing through part of a forest, with an easy climb, to see solitary stone sticking up overlooking
the town as a watchman! The views are great and there is a place for refreshments and souvenirs. They were also building a zip -line to cross a small valley ...should be fun once it is finished!

What an amazing place. The Centinela is balanced but looks as if it could topple off its base at a touch! Wonderful walks and terrific views. Plenty of parking and a couple of places to eat and clean toilets

Time for a trip back into time. Centinela is a family hiking park with a rock the balances on it point and can crush a bottle as it sways back and forth over the course of several hours. Not the most exciting thing in the world but the fresh air country side and surrounding sierras (hills) make this an ideal spot for a lunch. Centinela has a huge Asado everyday for lunch. You can sit outside or go into the tavern, a throwback to life 50-100 years ago.The food is good, ample in size and extremely reasonable. Service is friendly and unhurried. If you want a day in a park or are traveling with kids this is a great place for lunch.

It was fun going up in the lift and enjoying the nice view, You can choose to purchase the photograph that is taken before you get off at the top. Some very nice handicraft shops at the top too.

It is a nice trip. Nice views and good facilities to eat and have a fun day. It gets very full in the weekends so try to be early if you want to do stuff like horseback riding or visiting the mountain.

Si aunque todo es al aire libre.
Se aprecia más sin lluvia.
Las aerosillas no funcionan.
No es lo ideal pero es un cerro abierto.

Hola; se puede ir caminando pero ten en cuenta que son son unos 7 a 8 Km, distancia que te llevaría una hora y media por lo menos. Vi gente que hace el recorrido desde la ciudad.
Cuánto sale el paseo en aerosillas?

Hola! Tenés idea cuánto tiempo de caminata lleva el ascenso y qué dificultad tiene? Voy con mi beba de 7 meses que llevaré en mochilita y mi mamá que no está muy acostumbrada a caminar. Gracias

Hola Jesi, el camino que te lleva hasta el Centinela, él más fácil no es un sendero liso, es de piedras con desniveles porque es natural no está armado, es una subida de la misma roca del cerro, no tiene barandas, así que tanto el ascenso como el descenso, el tiempo lo va a marcar el ritmo que le dé tu mamá, estimo que en 5' van a llegar arriba y, fundamentalmente se necesita tener zapatillas (no tienen que tener suela lisa) porque se necesita tener agarre. La dificultad es media. Que disfruten del paseo.
Se puede subir a pie con un perro?

Hola!Si le gusta el trekking puede ser...pero veo que la mayoría de la gente sube en auto. Arriba hay estacionamientos.No recuerdo cuanto trecho hay desde la base. Igual después hay aerosilla, no sé si permiten mascotas.

No, de hecho yo subi caminando. Es un trecho corto en subida para nada cansador. Se puede hacer tranquilamente caminando. Saludos
