Réserve naturelle Pehuen-Có - Monte Hermoso, Natural reserve in southern Buenos Aires Province, Argentina.
The reserve encompasses 2000 hectares of coastal dunes, temporal water bodies, and native grasslands along the Atlantic shoreline.
Charles Darwin conducted research in this area, examining vertebrate fossils dating between 3 and 5 million years old in the coastal cliffs.
The archaeological site contains human footprints from 7000 years ago, preserved in clay sediments alongside marine shells and stone artifacts.
Guided visits to the reserve begin in January through the Vicente di Martino Science Museum, which coordinates educational tours.
The reserve holds one of South America's rare collections of preserved ancient human tracks in sedimentary deposits.
