Itinerary

DEPARTURE FROM BARILOCHE. Departing from downtown Bariloche (with regular transfer), we travel 25 km along the scenic Avenida Bustillo, reaching Puerto Pañuelo. Here begins our unforgettable navigation through the pristine waters of Lake Nahuel Huapi.

CENTINELA ISLET. During the one-hour boat ride, the first notable site is Centinela Islet a serene, forested island where the remains of Perito Francisco Moreno, a key figure in the exploration of Patagonia, rest. This is a moment of reflection in the heart of nature.

LOS CÁNTAROS WATERFALL. We disembark at the base of Los Cántaros Waterfall. A beautiful trail winds through the lush Valdivian rainforest. As we ascend the 700-step path, we admire thick vegetation and, eventually, reach Lake Cántaros, the source of the waterfall. Along the way, we encounter a spectacular Alerce tree estimated to be over 1,500 years old a true living monument.

PUERTO BLEST. After a short five-minute sail, we arrive at Puerto Blest .a remote and magical place that has fascinated travelers from around the world for generations. Here you can stroll along the bay and enjoy the tranquility of this unique corner of Patagonia.

LAKE FRÍAS. From Puerto Blest, you may opt for the extension to Lake Frías. A 3-kilometer bus ride brings us to Puerto Alegre, where we board a modern vessel to navigate this stunning lake. The striking green color of its waters is caused by glacial sediment from Mount Tronador. After 20 minutes of sailing, we reach Puerto Frías, near the border with Chile. We pause briefly to enjoy the surroundings, then return via the same route to Puerto Pañuelo.
