Day 6

Night in Bariloche

Known as the “Seven Lakes Route”, we will go along the section of National Route 234 that joins the districts of San Martín de los Andes and Villa La Angostura. We will look at the main tourist corridor in the area, known world-wide for the matchless beauty of its landscapes, with panoramic natural vantage points, lakes, rivers and countless attractions opening up in front of those who are willing to discover, together with us, the real seven lakes route.

The majestic City of San Carlos de Bariloche lies on the shores of Lake Nahuel Huapi, which combined with mountains and forests makes up the context of one of the most beautiful sites on Earth. Lying on the West of the Province of Río Negro and 1,640 kilometers away from the City of Buenos Aires, Bariloche offers all the services and amenities necessary for visitors to choose this place as the perfect location to rest at any season. Fly-fishing trout and salmonidae during the summer and practicing various sports such as hiking, river rafting along dozens of waterways and walking around the ancient forests, as well as the ascents to most summits surrounding the city, are some of the recreational activities enjoyed by visitors to Bariloche.

The Llao Llao Golf Club maintains a balance with the impressive natural frame of the zone.This amazing golf course is one of the best ones of the world. Attractive greens with challenging falls, perfectly integrated bunkers and water hazards, all very different to each other, make up an interesting and harmonic set. A course with seeding with excellent ideal grass for the zone and flanking the Lake Nahuel Huapi and hundred year old trees of great size.

Day 8

Night in Bariloche

Arelauquen Golf & Country Club has one of the best golf course in the Patagonia. 18 holes amid lakes and mountains, with a design conceived by golf-pro Vicente "Chino" Fernandez. Its construction reflects the latest internationally available know-how, ensuring the course's competitiveness. Open all-year around, for members as well as tourists, with all the necessary services provided at the clubhouse.

From Pañuelo Harbor (at km. 25 of Bustillo Av.) we sail one hour North West wards through Lake Nahuel Huapi to Arrayanes Harbor. This port is located on Quetrihue Peninsula on Los Arrayanes National Park. These native trees (Arrayán, Luma apiculata) which are related to the Australian eucalyptus, are generally found as isolated bushes, forming in this ocation a unique tall and old forest of many trees. These trees have cinnamon color bark, white small flowers that bloom in summer and an eatable black fruit. Here we have about 45 minutes to walk inside the forest (always on the marked path) before taking the boat to Victoria Island. Once on the island (lunch time if we took the wwhole day tour) there are two options to have a fast and simple lunch: by the lake or at the top of the Mount Bellavista to which we get by a short chairlift. Next we can take the guided walk into the ancient pine forest, which has been planted at the beginning of twentieth century as timber, preserved nowadays as a tourist attractive. We sail back to Pañuelo harbor sailing for about half an hour and then driving back to Bariloche.

FISHING ADVENTURES - OPTIONAL

On boats specially designed for mountain rivers navigation, called Cata Raft, we will practice Fly Fishing and / or Spinning. Floating downstream, fishing from the cata-raft and stopping to wade in the best spots on the river. These special locations known only to locals and are well away from the majority of the other fisherman.

The Limay River, one of the largest rivers in the area, drains Nahuel Huapi Lake. This eastern flowing river is notorious for large rainbows in November and December and large browns in March and April. The reputation of big trout in northern and central Patagonia started here in the Limay. Still today in Patagonia, the vast majority of huge brown and rainbow trout recorded north of Rio Gallegos, are produced from the Limay River. Only a couple rivers can produce such spectacular fish as the Limay, however, even those rivers that have such specimens do not have as many and they are usually caught only in April and only at the bocas. Catching a huge rainbow or brown is possible anywhere on the Limay and at any time of the season.
