Escape to the alpine wonderland of Bariloche (San Carlos de Bariloche), Argentina’s most spectacular mountain resort nestled on the shores of Nahuel Huapi Lake in the heart of Patagonia, where snow-capped peaks of the Andes reflect in emerald waters, the iconic Circuito Chico scenic drive winds past dramatic viewpoints like Cerro Campanario (with its panoramic 360° vistas), and the Cerro Catedral ski resort offers South America’s best skiing and snowboarding with over 120 km of slopes, modern lifts, and après-ski vibes. Stroll the charming alpine-style downtown along Mitre Street lined with chocolate shops (famous for Bariloche’s artisanal chocolates), cozy fondue restaurants, and the elegant Centro Cívico with its log-cabin architecture and Nahuel Huapi views, or explore the pristine trails of Nahuel Huapi National Park for hiking to hidden waterfalls, kayaking on crystal lakes, or spotting Andean condors—all in a destination that perfectly blends Swiss-like alpine beauty, world-class outdoor adventure, and the warm, passionate hospitality of Patagonia just 2 hours by flight from Buenos Aires.
Savor rich chocolate truffles and alfajores from Rapa Nui or Mamuschka, hearty Patagonian lamb asado with chimichurri, creamy fondue, and bold Patagonian Malbec amid lake breezes, snowy peaks, and the unmistakable sense of a place that feels like the Alps transplanted to the Southern Hemisphere.
Bariloche isn’t just a destination—it’s Argentina’s most magical alpine-lake escape of mountains, chocolate, and pure Patagonian soul—plan your Bariloche adventure today!
