Estancia Maradona
The Estancia Maradona is a protected area in San Juan Province, Argentina, about southwest of San Juan, Argentina.
It covers just over, and lies at the foot of the foothills near the Sierra Chica de Zonda.
In March 1831 an armed party of forty men under Nasario Benavides were making the Estancia de Don Manuel Maradona their base while preparing to return to San Juan during the Argentine Civil Wars.
Today, Estancia Maradona is an area where guanacos are conserved. Due to its proximity to the city, poaching is a problem.
The land is rugged. Although the estancia is private property, it is used without permission for recreation by people with all-terrain vehicles.
