Why travel to Bariloche

With a stunning landscape of rocky crags and dense woods as a backdrop, the lakeside town of San Carlos de Bariloche (commonly just called Bariloche) is the ideal location to enjoy Patagonia’s rugged natural beauty.
Sitting at the foothills of the Andes, which loom to the west, and with the plains of the Patagonian steppe to the east, and the vast Nahuel Huapi Lake right in the center, Bariloche is a dream vacation spot for adventure travelers. Here, outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy trekking, skiing, various water sports, and climbing, among other thrilling activities on their Bariloche tour.
Bariloche is located right in the center of Nahuel National Park, which gives nature lovers the chance to get up close and personal with the distinct wildlife in the park, including birds such as parakeets and condors. Mixed among the natural beauty are many traveler-friendly facilities, such as quaint boutiques, famous chocolate shops, and first-class restaurants offering some of the best foods in Patagonia.
What to do in Bariloche

City Tour. One of the most popular things to do in town is to take a city tour. Just a few blocks from the Civic Center sits perhaps the most strikingly positioned church, named Nuestra Señora del Nahuel Huapi Cathedral. Perched on a hilltop and surrounded by imposing pines under a brilliant blue sky, this church is simply stunning and has recently been declared a National Historic Monument.
Visit Museums. Within the attractive, Swiss-inspired Civic Center sits the must-see Museum of Patagonia, the perfect place to learn about the indigenous inhabitants of Bariloche and its surrounding area. If natural history is more to your taste, then do not miss the Paleontology Museum, located right on the coast of the beautiful Nahuel Huapi Lake and displaying a wonderful collection of deposits from millions of years ago, including a 22-million-year-old shark jaw.
Hiking and outdoor adventures. Many of the attractions of Bariloche are located outside the city’s center. The biggest appeal of Bariloche is that it offers wonderful opportunities to enjoy the brilliant Argentine alpine wilderness. The water line route of the Circuito Chico (Small Circuit) offers amazing views of the merging Nahuel Huapi and Perito Moreno lakes, as well as of the snow-capped Cerro Catedral peak. The vast Nahuel Huapi National Park, within which lays the famed Arrayane Forest, beckons vacationers who enthusiastically roam the numerous trails to observe wildlife. Renowned for its first-rate skiing, Cerro Catedral is the largest resort of its kind in South America, but travelers will also find countless fishing, mountain biking, rafting, and swimming opportunities.
When to visit Bariloche

Bariloche is famous for being an exquisite winter holiday destination. Full of chocolate shops, microbreweries, and world-class skiing, Argentina’s winter is spectacular in Bariloche. However, if you’re looking to avoid the packs of holidaymakers during peak season (December-January and July), consider visiting Bariloche in the spring (September-November) or autumn (March-April) when the surrounding forests are at their best, and the crowds are smaller. On the other hand, if you are interested in skiing down the slopes of Cerro Catedral, August is the perfect month.

Argentina was so beautiful and diverse, and Argentina For Less was definitely a good choice for us. You were able to meet our needs and help us find an efficient way to move around the country, and provide us with suggestions for tours and accommodations. And we still had time to explore on our own.
