    My whole family had a great time, it is a very fun park, the children had an amazing afternoon and the guides are very friendly. It was an excellent visit. Adequate prices and the route is easy to do even with strollers. use cash

    As someone who is interested in monitoring the progress of climate change, glacial progression to me is one of the clearest indicators. Thus, seeing Ventisquero Negro on Cerro Tronador is a marvel for the eyes and the mind. Be ready for a bumpy and long ride, but our guide was great at providing context on the Parque Nahuel Huapi and the wonder of Cerro Tronador.

    There are many stopping points along the way as well, and these mountains will again provide value and an amazing experience in themselves. As a company, Huilliches again provided a solid guide.

    My husband and I biked a portion of Circuito Chico and while I have absolutely no complaints about the process of rental, the views or any of the stops along the way, I feel like I need to put it out there that this is a difficult path to bike. I consider myself in relatively good shape and most of the first part of this path is almost entirely uphill and it is STEEP. Please don't let that be a deterrent from seeing the circuit but just choose your mode of travel knowing that. I ended up having to walk my bike up some of the parts - which would have been challenging without a bike but much easier to just walk not having to push the bike with me! Definitely stop at Punto Panoramico and Patagonia for a beer!

    Going back the other way was MUCH easier as it was a lot of downhill :)

    My friend and I hiked to the summit, it was a tough hike but worth it. The views are really incredible and it was good exercise, if a little tough at times. We decided to get the cable car down but when we arrived (an hour before closing) we were told we could not buy tickets as the ticket offices were closed. This seemed a bit ridiculous as there were many empty cars and many staff really not doing anything. Hugely disappointing end to a great hike.

    This all-day adventure was amazing! The boat rides are an incredible way to see all the views and the hike up to the Cascada (waterfall) de los Cantaros is a good one. We did the hike along the lake from Puerto Blest to the waterfall (about a 45 min walk/hike with gorgeous views) and then up to the waterfall. The trip up to the waterfall is on wooden walkways with LOTS of steps. Not easy, but if you take you time totally do-able if you are in ok physical shape (i.e. you don't need to be an athlete). LOVED this!

    We took the Boat Cau Car to Isla Victoria where we did the short hike, saw the little area for the Arrayanes trees, endemic trees to the area. Our guide gave us history and tour of the area.

    We also visited the Bosque Arrayanes on this boat excursion.

    Beautiful.

    Beautiful church even though the interior is clearly unfinished. Friendly welcome by two ladies sitting at a table by the door. They had a decent expo on the history of the church and Christianity in the area. Prayerful place worth a visit.

    My friends and I had the best time! Most of us never saw the snow before and we were lucky enough to play with it for at least three hours, snow ball fights, snow angels, everything! We did tubing races and rode a zip-line with a great snowy view.

    Incredible views and hike and people, delicious beers, about 4.5 hours to get there (with many short stops), and 2-3 hours to get back.

    We visited the ski resort in the summer time. Itā€™s a beautiful area with lots of good hiking. We drove up from the lodge where we were staying and it was very accessible.

    Centro Civico is the heart of Bariloche. It's a large square where people gather for festivals and political events. Surrounded by attractive grey stone building with golden cypress wood trim. Looks like a Swiss alpine village. The City Hall Clock Tower is the main symbol of the town. Be sure to check out the Museo de la Patagonia.
