RIO NEGRO
Argentina's Lake District stretches across Neuquén and down into Rio Negro,
covering an area of nearly 300 miles between Lakes Aluminé and Amutui Quimei.
With splendid coastal villages and national parks located along the limits of
northern Patagonia, travelers find Río Negro to be nature's definition of paradise.
Nahuel Huapi National Park is considered the heart of Argentina's Lake District.
Often regarded as the Switzerland of South America, the resort town of San
Carlos de Bariloche radiates a European spirit in the perfect Alpine environment.
Crystal blue bodies of water offer mirror reflections of surrounding Andean
foothills, while ascending cable cars provide the perfect aerial snapshots.
Excursions aboard local catamarans from Llao Llao Peninsula will bring you to Isla
Victoria, wrapped in winding trails with various mammals roaming among imposing
pine trees. Quetrihue Peninsula is home to Los Arrayanes National Park and
numerous twisted cinnamon-colored trees. In the spring, casual bike rides will
introduce you to colorful fields of blossoming flowers and verdant hillsides ideal
for romantic picnics. Inlets, waterfalls, and even chocolate factories are available
for exploration! During winter months, Bariloche becomes a ski haven, hosting
thousands of thrill seekers along the slopes of Cerro Catedral.
