Scenic journeys in the lake district

South Lake District, Patagonia

Explore wilderness landscapes by boat, road and foot.

To travel the winding roads of the Lake District is one of Argentina’s signature travel experiences. Whether you like to self-drive or prefer to relax and let someone else do the steering, you’ll be rewarded with bountiful nature from beginning to end. Springtime (November) brings the beauty of renewal, with fresh snows on the mountaintops and flower-filled verges. In Autumn (April), the forests are ablaze in colour. Meanwhile, in summer (Jan-Feb) you may be tempted to park the car and dip your toes in the unbelievably clear – and glacial – waters and join the Argentines at play. Let us offer you a ride, from a Short Circuit around Bariloche to a full day out along the Seven Lakes route to San Martin de los Andes via Villa la Angostura: a medley of scenery straight from a story book.
