What to do in Bariloche

The technical and much tamer start to Argentinian Patagonia, Bariloche is a picturesque town beside one of the many mirror-like lakes that cover the two million-acre park. After sampling the country's finest chocolate, set off on a scenic driving route, or get comfortable at your hotel before hiking, biking and horseback riding to some of the scattered ethereal viewpoints. If you're visiting in the winter, pack your snow gear for spot of skiing above the clouds.
