Description

We will pick you up at your lodging in Bariloche to depart from the city and take Route N40 towards the south. As we progress along this Mount Tronador & Ventisquero Negro tour, we will get the chance to see Lakes Gutiérrez and Mascardi. Then, we will venture off onto a gravel road that cuts through a Patagonian forest. We will make short stops at the various lookout spots along the route to behold the landscapes of this area. Afterwards, we will cross the bridge over the Manso River to reach the area of Los Rápidos and Pampa Linda, where we will be able to buy lunch.

After lunch, we will arrive at a lookout point where it is possible to see the Ventisquero Negro, a glacier where the silence will allow us to better appreciate the surroundings and get in touch with nature. Then, we will continue along the way to the base of Mount Tronador, where we will enjoy the views, rest for a bit from the trip, and take the opportunity to take pictures. After this free time, we will start the return trip back to Bariloche to end our activity.

*If your accommodation is an Airbnb, we will need to set a meeting point to start the tour, as pick-up is not available at this type of lodging.
