Lobos

Lobos was founded on June 2, 1802 by José Salgado[?]. It is a city located 100 km from Buenos Aires. It is currently a fertile agricultural area, and it is known mainly because of the dairy activity and dairy-related products. The Laguna de Lobos[?], (the lagoon) is located at 115 km from Buenos Aires and it constitutes the most important lure for tourism and sports activities.

Another tourist place in Lobos is the aerodrome, a unique place in the province and one of the most important within the country on account of public access for parachuting classes and regular flights for tourism.

Besides its tourist attractions where the lagoon takes the lion's share of tourists, Lobos boasts a park for recreation, a history museum and the house (now turned into a museum) of former president Juan Domingo Perón, who was considered until recently one of the most important presidents of Argentina.
