Uribelarrea, Rural locality in Cañuelas Partido, Argentina
Uribelarrea is a rural settlement in Cañuelas Partido that spreads across farmland with homes and traditional structures arranged around a central plaza. The village sits in flat agricultural terrain typical of the Buenos Aires province.
The settlement was founded in 1889 by Miguel Nemesio de Uribelarrea during his time as president of Buenos Aires municipality. It later became a significant center for dairy production across the region.
Dairy farming shaped this place for generations, and that heritage remains visible in how locals speak about their land and in small family operations that continue today. The connection to agriculture runs deep in conversations and daily routines throughout the settlement.
The village is best reached by car from Buenos Aires, making driving the most practical way to visit. Plan your trip for a weekend when shops and farm operations tend to be open and welcoming.
Some small operations today produce specialty goods from goat milk, while others craft local wines like Tannat for visitors to taste. These products show how the place's agricultural roots continue in contemporary ways.
