SAN RAFAEL, the second largest city of the province of Mendoza, is located at the western-most region of Argentina, known as Cuyo. The terrain is high desert, watered by the run-off rivers from the high Andes Mountains just beyond. Rancho Divino is 15 km from the city, in the farming community of Cuadro Benegas, parallel to the Diamante River and along National Highway 144, the route to the scenic mountains and lakes to the southwest.
