Río de la Plata

Carmelo

Wineries, a delta and the oldest swing bridge in the country.

Cycling

Carmelo is the Uruguay of wine: tannat, family wineries that host you for lunch, and a delta of streams you explore by kayak. It is two hours from Colonia and works well for a slow weekend.

What you should not miss

  • Winery lunch with pairing
  • Kayaking on the Las Vacas delta
  • The swing bridge at dusk
  • Río de la Plata beach at Playa Seré
