Highlights
  • Puerto Panuelo - After picking up all the travelers from the hotels, we will drive to the first stop on a trip that lasts about half an hour.
  • Nahuel Huapi Lake - We will pass by Lake Nahuel Huapi, with very beautiful panoramic views!
  • Bosque de Los Arrayanes - Our first stop will be on the Quetrihue Peninsula where the Arrayanes Forest is located, which belongs to Villa la Angostura. A small town in Neuquén..

In this forest is the famous little house that is said to have inspired Walt Disney to draw Bambi.

The little house (it was previously a pioneer’s house and today a candy store) and the forest are beautiful and make you feel like you are in a story. The Arrayán tree is one of the most beautiful in the forests of Bariloche, the trunk has a very different light cinnamon color, it has small green leaves and beautiful white flowers, it really attracts a lot of attention.

Inside the Forest there is a circular and super accessible wooden track, which ends in the pastry shop.

  • Isla Victoria - We board the boat, then sail to the largest island in Lake Nahuel Huapi, Victoria Island, famous for its story about the arrival of some pioneers to the city and the introduction of exotic species in Patagonia.

There are several trails, historic houses, beaches, restaurants and lots of nature, everything is well signposted. After visiting the island, you will sail back to Porto Pañuelo.

  • Puerto Panuelo - After our last stop, we will take the boat back to Puerto Pañuelo. There our tour will end.
