Centenario: Wine, History and Outdoor Activities

Centenario offers a wide variety of experiences: wine and cultivation, a historic area, walking paths along the Paseo Costero and motorsports. On your trip, you can choose from opportunities to learn about local produce, the town’s history and outdoor activities. Each of these themes offers a distinct way to discover Centenario.

Experience Wine and Cultivation

Viñas Constanza offers vineyard tours and wine tastings in Centenario. These provide two different ways to explore wine: a tour focuses on the vineyard, while a tasting focuses on the wine itself. The visitor experiences offered by the Ruta del Vino and Las chacras Neuquinas in Neuquén include tastings of Patagonian wines. Wine enthusiasts can therefore consider Centenario a destination with a direct connection to winegrowing and tastings.

Other experiences also focus on cultivation. Praderas Neuquinas offers tours of an olive grove and tastings. Flor Dorada, in turn, offers tours of an agroecological garden. These experiences differ in what they feature: one focuses on an olive grove, the other on a garden with an agroecological focus. If you like to include different types of cultivation in your travel plans, you’ll find a range of themes here rather than just another wine tasting.

Local History in Centenario

The Museo Municipal is housed in the former building of Escuela Nº 109. The building’s former use as a school is therefore an integral part of its history. Casco Viejo is the historic area that emerged as Centenario’s population became established. The museum and Casco Viejo offer two different points of connection with local history: a municipal museum in a former school building and an area whose origins are linked to the development of the population. If you’re interested in local history, you can take these aspects into account when choosing what you’d like to explore on your trip.

Walking Paths, Barbecue Areas and Motorsports

The Paseo Costero de Centenario is a balneario with barbecue areas and walking paths. It offers both opportunities for walking and designated places for barbecuing. This is quite different from the tours focused on wine, olive groves and gardens: here, the emphasis is on paths and barbecue areas. The Autódromo Parque adds motorsports to the range of activities. The race track is designated for TC and speed races, appealing to a different interest than the historical and agricultural experiences. The fact that Praderas Neuquinas also offers tastings broadens the range beyond wine experiences. This means tastings from two different providers sit alongside insights into different forms of cultivation, adding variety to Centenario’s agricultural experiences.
