It's a nice place

Great experience from Misiones to Neuquen.

(Translated by Google) I don't ski, but I had a great time at the hill! It's beautiful, I loved the view, and I was able to visit on a snowy day! You can rent ski and snowboard equipment, as well as ski equipment. Unfortunately, the snow season wasn't great, so many slopes were closed. The restaurant options are pretty basic, in my opinion, and not worth it. It's best to bring your own snacks or eat on the way back. (Original) Eu não esquio mas me diverti muito no cerro! O lugar é lindo, adorei a vista e consegui visitar em dia de neve! Da para alugar equipamento de ski e snowboard, e também para eskibunda. Infelizmente a temporada de neve não foi boa então muitas pistas estavam fechadas. As opções de restaurante são bem básicas na minha opinião, e não compensa. Melhor trazer o seu lanche ou comer na volta.

(Translated by Google) It's more expensive if you go up as a pedestrian ($58,100 July 2025) compared to Cerro Catedral ($36,000). Prices for eating, for example, $32,000 for a hamburger and fries (it can be expensive, like any tourist spot during peak season). It's best to bring just enough to avoid being overloaded. The most important thing is to be very careful not to leave anything in your car; they're stealing a lot when opening them with an anti-theft device. It's very nice if you have the added benefit of it snowing. (Original) Es más caro si suben como peaton ($58100 julio 2025) comparado con Cerro Catedral ($36000) los precios para comer ej. $32000 hamburguesa c/papas( puede resultar caro como cualquier lugar turístico en plena temporada) lo ideal es llevar lo justo para no estar cargados. Lo mas importante tener mucho cuidado no dejar nada en el auto, están robando bastante abriendolos con inhibidor. Es muy lindo si tienen el plus de que este nevando

(Translated by Google) I went in September 2024. We thought we could go trekking, because it was listed on the trail list. But it turns out this trail is only open in the summer, and even then it's HIGH DIFFICULTY. After about 3 hours, we reached almost the end, with snow up to our waists. There was no one else there, and it snowed and hailed as we climbed, and our tracks were erased. This made the return very complicated: we got lost, we hurt ourselves (because the snow was soft, we were buried in the snow and the branches and trunks underneath hurt us). And there was no one around... Until we were able to find our way with our cell phone GPS and our intuition. The place is beautiful, and I enjoyed it despite everything, and I'd like to return when the trail is open. It was quite an adventure, worrying at times. HIGH DIFFICULTY, of course. I'm sharing this experience mainly to help others who want to try it. (Original) Fui en Septiembre 2024. Se nos ocurrió que podíamos hacer trekking, porque figuraba en el listado de senderos. Pero resulta que este camino solo se habilita en Verano, y ya en esa época es de DIFICULTAD ALTA. Después de aprox 3hs llegamos hasta casi el final, con la nieve cubriéndonos la cintura. No había nadie más que nosotros, nevó y granizó mientras subíamos y nuestras huellas se borraron. Eso hizo que la vuelta sea muy complicada: nos perdimos, nos lastimamos (porque la nieve estaba blanda, nos enterrabamos en la nieve y nos lastimaban las ramas y troncos que habían por debajo). Y no había nadie... Hasta que pudimos orientarnos con el GPS del celular y nuestra intuición. El lugar es bellísimo y lo disfruté a pesar de todo, y me gustaría volver cuando sí esté habilitado el sendero. Fue toda una aventura, preocupante por momentos. DIFICULTAD ALTA, por supuesto. Dejo esta experiencia, principalmente para ayudar a otros que quieran intentarlo.

(Translated by Google) I loved this place, it was really beautiful, lots of snow and excellent to go and enjoy... I recommend it. (Original) Me encantó este lugar la verdad precioso mucha nieve y excelente para ir a disfrutar... Lo recomiendo

Really beautiful park. I recommend taking the catamaran one way and then walking back. That takes about 3 hours (not walking slowly) including the side trips to the laguna and the two miradors. At the end you can have a great refreshing swim in one of the beaches near the pier.

I am not sure where all these five star reviews are coming from. This trip was not what we were led to believe. Let me start with something no one is mentioning (I suspect because most of these reviews are from “Local Guides”) - the majority of the special trees in the Arrayanes Forest looks dead (see photos). The trees were apparently shocked by a heatwave ten years ago and have not yet recovered, meaning their trunks are gray, not the orange you see in most the promotional photos. This was a massive disappointment, particularly having seen extensive crepe myrtle and madrone forests in the US. The boardwalk tour is fine but lasts about 20 minutes with not much in the form of information along the way. Everyone we encountered at the end of the boardwalk had a “Really? That’s it?” look on their face. We opted for the bike ride out. It is not a leisurely affair as some have mentioned. If you are an experienced mountain biker, this would be great for you. Not for the novice. The first 2 kilometers are very steep up, then down, so you are pushing your bike most of the time (or even carrying it). This repeats several more times until you get to the famed forest, though there are long stretches of a gentle downhill. The return would be a continuous gradual climb back to the steep parts, which would have been really tough for that distance. The trail is well maintained and the flora is nice enough but it would be hard to say this is a better choice than the other hikes in the area. There is only one bay overlook that I recall. The rest is deep forest. We took the boat back (8000 pesos) along the Patagonia east side (instead of the bay) and that was actually quite stunning and the boat guide gave a nice talk. I grew up in the National Park system in the US and I don’t like to besmirch anywhere people are trying to care for nature, but it seems, given the prices being charged by those enabling folks to visit this location, this is a conundrum - the parque needs the money to survive, locals need money to survive, but I guess I am just telling folks to not always believe what you read in reviews.

Entry price for foreigners is 2300 pesos. Make sure it is sunny to take full advantage. You can enjoy the lake if you don't want to spend the amount. There are other nice beautiful places you can enjoy that are free (200 pesos transportation for each). Check my reviews for Villa de Agusturo.

Excellent walk. Magical scenery. The arrayanes bosque is a solid 11 km walk from the entrance so be ready for that. We walked there and were able to buy boat passage back to town once we were at the end; it wasn't necessary to arrange boat passage in advance (though maybe worth doing if you can to avoid the risk if you know that's your plan)

I did it end of May on a sunny day it was perfect, the nature is really diverse and if you are lucky you will see some amazing birds like the Carpintero Negro Gigante who usually are afraid of the tourists. So it's worth going there off-season even if the price is a bit high (300 ARS)

A beautiful Park with unique trees. Paths are very well marked, and there are a few hills to get your heart rate up! There are two boat services, one route takes 45 mins, the other 60 mins. Each approaches the peninsular from opposite sides, so it is worth checking the wind direction to see which will be smoother, if that bothers you. Make sure you sit up top to fully enjoy the views, breathtaking.

Rent a bike in Villa la Angostura and go for a 12 km ride in the park. Full of ups and downs and beautiful. Bring a packed lunch. By bike it should take you 4 hours or so.

Waterfall lookout 3 minutes walking from the road, some slop but easy for all the family due is really close from the parking. Is nice but definitely not a must.

Just stunning. A must to see.

You can either walk 40 minutes from Ruta 40 or a small 5’ walk detour if you go up the road to Cerro Bayo

Bellisimo!!!

Bellisimo !!!

(Translated by Google) Free admission. A beautiful waterfall to visit. It starts with a few steep meters down, which are a bit tricky on the way out. Despite this, it's totally worth it; the waterfall is very beautiful. (Original) Entrada libre y gratuita. Hermosa cascada para ir a visitar. Comienza con unos metros empinados hacia abajo, los cuales son un poco complicados a la salida. A pesar de esto, vale la pena totalmente, muy linda la cascada.

The walk down is a little steep if you have mobility issues it would be hard a nice little stop.

Beautiful lake but need some maintenance

Safa

(Translated by Google) Very pretty. We paid $7000 per person for a campfire and parking, children under 12 do not pay. There is a bar and smoothies. Cash, no wifi. At the entrance the road is a disaster. At the exit and on the way up...terrible. The rest comfortable route. The maps indicate incorrectly, going from San Martín is before the roundabout. (Original) Muy lindo. Pagamos fogón y estacionamiento $7000 por persona, menores de 12 no pagan. Hay bar y licuados. Efectivo, no hay wifi. En la entrada el camino es un desastre. A la salida y en subida...pésimo. El resto ruta cómoda. El maps indica mal, yendo de San Martín es antes de la rotonda.

(Translated by Google) Paradise, complete parador, bathrooms, lifeguards. Ideal beach for families. Less cold water than other lakes. (Original) Paradisíaco, parador completo, baños, guardavidas.Playa ideal para familias. Agua menos fría que otros lagos.

(Translated by Google) Spectacular place. The spa is very good but along the route there are other nicer and quieter beaches. (Original) Espectacular lugar. El balneario está muy bien pero a lo largo de la ruta hay otras playas más lindas y tranquilas.

(Translated by Google) Impressive view. Last lake on the path of the 7 lakes leaving from San Martin de los Andes. The view is truly incredible, its main viewpoint may go somewhat unnoticed on the route so you have to pay attention. It has a beach that, although I didn't know it, looked very nice, although you have to pay for camping access to enter. Incredible view, a lot of vegetation and an incredible closure to the route of this impressive route (Original) Vista imponente. Último lago del camino de los 7 lagos saliendo desde San Martin de los Andes. Realmente la vista es increíble, su principal mirador puede que pase algo desapercibido en la ruta por lo que hay que ir atento. Tiene una playa que si bien no conoci se veía muy linda aunque hay que pagar acceso de camping para poder ingresar. Vista increíble, mucha vegetación y un cierre increíble al recorrido de esta impresionante ruta

(Translated by Google) Mirror Lake: all its splendor and reflection should be appreciated in calm waters, preferably in the early morning. A beautiful place worth visiting if you're traveling along the Seven Lakes Route. (Original) Lago espejo, todo su esplendor y reflejo se debe apreciar con aguas calmas, preferiblemente en horas tempranas de la mañana. Un lugar hermoso que vale la pena conocer si cruzas la ruta de los 7 Lagos.

A truly beautiful lake. Chilean immigrants, who were farmers, first arrived here in 1898. They started growing wheat, potatoes, and oat , and raising cows and sheep. Throughout the region, there are numerous farmers with families on both sides of the border. The Argentinian border officers don’t bother them with papers as they use alternative routes.

AMAZING!

Very nice views. Nice weather. Quiet.

This is a amazing place

(Translated by Google) Public beach. Quiet and with warm waters. There's a food pantry and a buffet with affordable prices, served by the campground staff and local residents. (Original) Playa pública. Tranquilo y con aguas tibias. Hay despensa y bufet con precios accesibles atendido por la gente del camping y pobladores

(Translated by Google) A beautiful view, no doubt. The entire Seven Lakes Trail is unique and grand to admire. We're five minutes from the trail, five minutes from the trail, and so we're off for a really fun family day. Picture-postcard and totally nature. (Original) Hermosa vista sin duda. Toda la ruta de los siete lagos es única y grande para admirar estamos 5 minutos y ruta 5 minutos y ruta 📍 y así vamos muy divertido el día en familia. Postal postal y naturaleza total.

(Translated by Google) It's a must-see. Turquoise water, crystal blue, calm, super clear. No rocks to step on. It's beautiful. A quiet beach, if you arrive around 10:30, you can choose your spot calmly. You can't leave the south without seeing it. (Original) Es un imperdible. Agua turquesa, azul cristalina, tranquilo, super cristalina. Sin piedras para entrar. Es hermoso. Playa tranquila, si llegas tipo diez y media elegis lugar tranquilamente. No se puede ir uno del sur sin conocerlo

When we parked to go up the trail, a lady came up to us and charged us $3 usd for "parking", and tried to explain how to get to the waterfall

A hike mostly through a forest logging path. We were asked to pay 3000$ for parking by the people living there. It takes about 1h20 to get to the waterfall. The path is not in the greatest state at the end, I would suggest using a hiking pole.

Nice trekking of 5 km on the forest and mountain surrounding Correntoso Lake. Mid difficulty

It's a relatively easy walk up to the waterfall, and then quite a demanding scramble in places to go behind it (and adds a couple of hours to the walking) but there are some spectacular views above the falls

nice walk through forest, viewpoint of waterfall wasn’t great!

Nice 45min walk. It was difficult to find the way. In some areas, the climb was very difficult. The view from the top was worth it.

Really nice hike and beautiful forest...falls was small but still worth the hike for walkers

Beautiful place, ideal to have a lunch. But it needs more care.

Nice walk.. Not the best in Angostura

Beautiful

Not that great

(Translated by Google) It's a short, easy trail, following a footbridge that leads to a large lagoon of green waters. Nothing more than that. (Original) Es un sendero corto, de nivel fácil, recorriendo una pasarela la cual desemboca en una gran laguna de guas verdes. No más q eso.

(Translated by Google) It's a relatively short circuit that circles the entire perimeter of the lagoon, along paths and walkways. It's a popular running route among locals. While it's somewhat overshadowed by other landscapes and trails in the area, it's well worth exploring. (Original) Es un circuito relativamente corto que circunda todo el perímetro de la laguna, sobre sendas y pasarelas. Es muy elegido por los locales para realizar running. Si bien queda completamente opacado por otros paisajes y caminos del lugar, vale la pena recorrerlo.

(Translated by Google) The day we visited the reserve was rainy, but it was worth the walk through the forest. The walkways and trails are in very good condition, making the entire trip enjoyable. Highly recommended, even when the weather isn't good. (Original) El día en que visitamos la reserva estuvo lluvioso, sin embargo valió la pena caminar dentro del bosque. Las pasarelas y los senderos están en muy bien estado lo cual hace agradable todo el recorrido. Altamente recomendable para hacer, aún cuando el tiempo no acompaña.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful Chapel near the Port of VLA to stop, meditate and give thanks (Original) Lindisima Capilla cerca del Puerto de VLA para hacer un alto, meditar y agradecer

(Translated by Google) The place is dreamy and perfectly maintained. Being a state place, it would be nice if you can enter, even with a guided tour, you can't even get out of the car. Taking that out, a beautiful place (Original) El lugar es soñado y perfectamente mantenido. Siendo un lugar estatal estaría bueno que se pueda entrar, aunque sea con visita guiada, ni siquiera se puede bajar del auto. Sacando eso, un bellísimo lugar

(Translated by Google) A walk around this historic residence, currently owned by the provincial government. It's best to explore it on foot to comfortably photograph not only the exterior of the building, but also the local flora and fauna. Stopping by vehicle is not permitted along the route. (Original) Recorrido alrededor de esta residencia histórica que actualmente es propiedad del gobierno de la provincia. Conviene recorrerlo de forma pedestre para poder fotografiar cómodamente no solo el exterior del inmueble, si no la fauna y vegetación del lugar.

(Translated by Google) Spectacular building. Previously it was one of the rest residences of the President of the Nation. In this place, the last Military Dictatorship kept former president Maria Estela Martinez de Peron prisoner. Now it is a residence of the governor of Neuquen. You cannot stop or get out of the car. A shame, because the place deserves to be visited. (Original) Espectacular edificación. Anteriormente era una de las residencia de descanso del presidente de la Nación. En este lugar, la última Dictadura Militar, mantuvo prisionera a la ex presidenta Maria Estela Martinez de Peron. Ahora es una residencia del gobernador de Neuquen.

(Translated by Google) The Messidor is a French-style castle and is the official summer residence of the governor of the province of Neuquén, since it was acquired by the provincial executive in 1964. This construction is located on a 36-hectare property a few meters from Lake Nahuel Huapi. and the cliffs of the Quetrihué Peninsula in the historic center of Villa La Angostura. The name El Messidor means “golden month” in French and responds to the fact that it is the tenth month of the year when the golden wheat fields shine in France. The construction of this castle began in February 1940 and was completed in January 1942, by architect Alejandro Bustillo, who chose a French style, inspired by Doctor Schutz's house in San Isidro (Buenos Aires), and respected the potential of the natural beauty of the place. There, in one of its rooms, former president María Estela Martínez de Perón –Isabelita- was detained after the coup d'état of March 24, 1976 by order of the Military Junta. She remained a prisoner for seven months in the French-style mansion, under strong guard. Today you can only tour the perimeter by vehicle. We did it on foot, leaving the vehicle on the adjacent ISSN property. 💯% recommended. (Original) El Messidor es un castillo de estilo francés y es la residencial oficial de verano del gobernador de la provincia de Neuquén, desde que fue adquirida por el ejecutivo provincial en 1964. Esta construcción se ubica en un predio de 36 hectáreas a metros del lago Nahuel Huapi y de los acantilados de la Península de Quetrihué en el casco histórico de Villa La Angostura. El nombre de El Messidor significa en francés “mes de oro” y responde a que es en el décimo mes del año en donde se relucían los trigales dorados en Francia. La construcción de este castillo comenzó en febrero de 1940 y finalizó en enero de 1942, a cargo del arquitecto Alejandro Bustillo, que eligió un estilo francés, inspirado en la casa del Doctor Schutz en San Isidro (Buenos Aires), y respetó el potencial de la belleza natural del lugar. Allí, en una de sus habitaciones la ex presidenta María Estela Martínez de Perón –Isabelita- estuvo detenida tras el golpe de Estado del 24 de marzo de 1976 por orden de la Junta Militar. Permaneció siete meses prisionera en la mansión de estilo francés, bajo una fuerte custodia. Hoy en día solo se puede realizar un recorrido del perímetro en vehículo. Nosotros lo hicimos a pie, dejando el vehículo en predio contiguo del ISSN. 💯 % recomendable.

(Translated by Google) I was only outside the complex where El Messidor is located, the place is very beautiful with native flora and fauna, and overlooking Lake Nahuel Huapi. (Original) Sólo estuve en el exterior del complejo dónde se encuentra El Messidor, el lugar es muy hermoso con flora y fauna autóctona, y con vista al lago Nahuel Huapi.

(Translated by Google) We only passed by outside, but it is an incredible place. From a movie I would say. I would have liked to know him from the inside. Isabel Perón's "prison" for 7 months (I would like to be detained there 😂) (Original) Solamente pasamos por fuera, pero es un lugar increible. De película diria yo. Me habria gustado conocerlo por dentro. La "prision" de Isabel Perón por 7 meses (ya quisiera estar detenido yo ahi 😂)

(Translated by Google) Beautiful residence on a wonderful day. You are not allowed to stop and get off, just go around it by car. It belongs to the government of Neuquén and only guests of the governor can stay there. (Original) Hermosa residencia en un día maravilloso. No se permite parar y bajar, solo dar una vuelta alrededor de la misma en auto. Pertenece al gobierno de Neuquén y solo pueden alojarse invitados del gobernador.

(Translated by Google) Super beautiful lake, waters not as cold as other places, has beautiful views. I recommend to go spend the whole day (Original) Lago súper hermoso, aguas no tan frías como en otros lugares, tiene vistas hermosas. Recomiendo para ir a pasar todo el día

(Translated by Google) For us, this is the best place to camp in the 7 lakes, with 2 camping areas, a very good beach, the Ruca Malen river that brings the overflow of the Correntoso, everything is very calm in March, but in January it is full, the dirt access road has been very bad for years. (Original) Este es para nosotros el mejor lugar para acampar en los 7 lagos, con 2 zonas de camping, muy buena playa, el río Ruca Malen que trae el desborde del Correntoso, todo muy tranquilo en marzo, pero en enero se llena, el camino de acceso de tierra hace años que está muy mal.

(Translated by Google) Enjoy the landscapes before arriving. Walk the path where the water intake is. To then get to the lake and relax, enjoying (Original) Disfruten los paisajes antes de llegar. Caminen el sendero donde esta la toma de agua. Para llegar luego al lago y relajarse disfrutando

(Translated by Google) I recommend 100%. The view and the tranquility you feel, the sand is super good, there is not so much rock. And the water is warmer to get in than other places in the South. (Original) Recomiendo al 100%. La vista y la tranquilidad que se sienten, la arena súper bien, no hay tanta roca. Y el agua es más cálida para meterse que en otros lugares del Sur.

(Translated by Google) The landscape is beautiful. Ideal for swimming, paddling, relaxing on the soft sands. I was in the northern part. 6000 per person. It has several plots with improvised stoves. A grocery store and restaurant. High but logical prices for where it is. There is no light, only in the 4 bathrooms and showers. Until 8 pm. Hot and cold water with schedules, two hours in the morning and two in the afternoon. Friendly attention from the administrator. Unfortunately there is a character who in a bad way without introducing himself told me not to throw grass on the trees because it makes the place ugly. The inconsistency bothered me because where I was there was grass everywhere. When I asked him if they don't compost, he didn't answer me. I give it three stars because if you can't throw weed, you should put up signs, in addition to improving: place some organic waste bins, at least two faucets in plots, the door locks of the bathrooms that are on the inside (some are outside ), signage, the man who spoke to me about the weed who is dedicated to cleaning the stoves. I was there for two days and he didn't do it. Regular bathroom cleaning. They do it late. The sinks for washing dishes, dirty. It's worth the place, absolutely. The deteriorated access road. You have to be careful. Remember, you can't throw weed. Waste and garbage comes back to you. Despite this prohibition, there is waste dumped where it does not belong. Important clarification: the southern campsite is oriented towards the lake, the south, towards the Ruca Malen river that flows into the Correntoso. This one costs 9000. (Original) El paisaje es hermoso. Ideal para nadar, remar, descansar en las arenas suaves. Estuve en la parte norte. 6000 por persona. Tiene varias parcelas con fogones improvisados. Una proveeduría y restaurante. Precios elevados pero lógicos por el lugar donde está. No hay luz, solo.en los 4 baños y duchas. Hastas las 20. Agua caliente y fria con horarios, dos horas a la mañana y dos a la tarde. Atención amable del administrador. Lamentablemente hay un personaje que de mal modo sin presentarse me dijo que no tire yerba en los árboles porque afea el lugar. Me molestó la incoherencia porque donde estaba habia yerba por todos lados. Cuando le pregunté si no hacen compost, no me respondió. Le doy tres estrellas porque si no se puede tirar yerba deben colocar cartelería, además d mejorar: colocar algunos tachos de desechos orgánicos, al menos dos canillas en parcelas, las trabas de puertas de los baños que estén del lado de adentro (algunas están afuera), cartelería, el señor que me habló por la yerba que se dedique a limpiar los fogones. Estuve dos dias y no lo hizo. Limpieza de baños regular. Lo hacen tarde. Las piletas para lavar vajilla, sucia. Vale la pena el lugar, absolutamente. El.camino de acceso deteriorado. Hay que ir con cuidado. Recuerden, no se puede tirar yerba. Desechos y basura vuelve con ustedes. No obstante esta prohibición, hay residuos tirados donde no corresponde. Aclaración importante el camping sur está orientado hacia el lago, el sur, hacia el rio Ruca Malen que desemboca en el Correntoso. Este sale 9000.

(Translated by Google) The place is beautiful. It has a confectionery with prices obviously a little more expensive than usual because you are in the middle of the mountain. The road in January 2024, although short on gravel, is not in very good condition. For a low car, with patience you get there well but with little jumps. Then, the transparent water, the landscapes that the south gives us as always from another planet. Before reaching the campsite on your left you have the small mirror that has very nice, small, sandy beaches and to go there you have to go down and cross a path through a small forest if you want to access the other beaches. The descent is somewhat uncomfortable because there was mud. It is 100% recommended to bring trekking shoes and some nautical boots. Everything solved! Protector and if you need some mosquito repellent that this summer looks like fighter planes (Original) El lugar es hermoso. Tiene una confitería con precios obviamente un poco más caros de lo habitual porque estás en el medio de la montaña. El camino en enero 2024 si bien es corto por ripio no está en muy buenas condiciones. Para un auto bajo con paciencia llegas bien pero a los saltitos. Después, el agua transparente, los paisajes que nos regala el sur como siempre de otro planeta. Antes de llegar al camping a tu izquierda tenés el espejo chico que tiene playitas muy lindas, chiquitas, arena y para ir tenés que hacer una bajada y cruzar un camino por un bosquecito si queres acceder a las otras playitas. La bajada es un tanto incómoda porque había barro. Recomendado 100% llevar calzados para treking y unas botitas nauticas. Todo resuelto! Protector y si necesitas algún repelente de tabanos que este verano parecen aviones de combate

(Translated by Google) A unique place! ⛱️ Several attractions in one place. Access is via Route 40, just after the bridge over the Ruca Malén River. The entrance is via a dirt road, in good condition but with some uneven ground that can be a bit overwhelming 😁 The distance from the crossing to the lake is approximately 2.5 km. However, halfway there, we find the first rest stop on the shore of the Espejo River, with beautiful, turquoise-colored potholes. Ideal for children and even for some scuba diving. Continuing on, and upon reaching the lake, there are two campsites with their respective management areas: North (just the lake) and South (some lake and the river entrance). You can park for free 50/100 meters from the lake or pay to enter any of the campsites and use the facilities. I liked the North one better; it has more space and the lake is beautiful. The beach is beautiful! A diff. The depth cut from the large mirror is pronounced, and a few meters from the shore it becomes quite deep. The water is crystal clear, like that of any lake, and the summer temperature is perfectly suitable for swimming and playing in the water. The beach is very comfortable, with medium-fine sand ⛱️ It was one of the most beautiful beaches so far, and it made for a full day at the beach! Some photos to share!!! (Original) Un lugar único! ⛱️ En un mismo lugar varias atracciones. Se accede desde la ruta 40, justo al finalizar el puente sobre el Río Ruca Malén. Ingreso sobre camino de tierra, en buen estado pero con algunos desniveles que sacuden a los ocupantes 😁 La distancia del cruce al lago es de 2.5 Km aprox. Sin embargo a mitad de camino encontramos el primer parador sobre la costa del río Espejo, con ollitas bellas, color turquesa. Ideal para niños e incluso hacer algo de buceo. Siguiendo y ya llegando al lago dos campings con sus respectivas administraciones. Norte (puro lago) y sur (algo de lago y la entrada al río). Se puede estacionar sin cargo a 50/100mts del lago o ingresar y abonar a cualquiera de los campings pudiendo hacer uso de las instalaciones. A mí me gustó más el Norte, más espacio y el lago es bello. La playa es hermosa! A dif. del espejo grande el corte de la profundidad es marcado, a los pocos metros de costa se hace bien profundo. El agua transparente como la de todos los lagos, la temperatura en verano súper aceptable para nadar y jugar en el agua. La playa muy cómoda, la arena entrefina ⛱️ Fue hasta ahora una de las playas más lindas y que permitió disfrutar de una jornada completa de playa! Algunas fotos para compartir!!!

(Translated by Google) Although the Canopy above is more attractive, this one has its charm and is good for those who want to start practicing, because there are different circuit options. You can also do things that are not offered above: climbing, a quite fun children's circuit, there are ATVs. We had a good experience and the staff's attention was good. It is not better than the one in Río Bonito, but it is a good alternative. (Original) Si bien el Canopy que está arriba es más atractivo, este tiene su encanto y está bueno para quien se quiere iniciar en la práctica, porque hay diferentes opciones de circuitos.

No es mejor que el de Río Bonito, pero es una buena alternativa.

Unique and marvelous experience! The host (Pablo) and guide (Ivan) were extremely nice and really do know how to show you a good time. We loved the horseback riding in the mountains with an excellent view at the top, and we had one of the best food experiences in all of Bariloche and Villa lá Angostura when we came back! 100% recommended, thank you to all

Great experience, we did a one hour ride and walked through beautiful forest and little creeks. Mariano was a pleasure to ride with, recommended this place for a unique experience.

I came alone and took a ride of 1.5 hours. The staff was super nice, and the ride was great, I had a great time and I learned a lot

My wife and I don't ride horses often and all, but this tour was so well-organized and comfortable. Guides Ivan and his brother were both kind and informative while clearly experts handling the horses....which were gentle and used to novice riders. After the out-and-back ride through the woods, along mountain stream beds to a beautiful overlook, we decided to partake in their lunch experience in the onsite Pulperia (what I understand to be a traditional hangout/bar/cabin for gauchos/cowboys). Paul cooked a delicious rustic feast of vegetables and meat. Overall, great experience and highly recommended.

Amazing experience not to miss. We did the 4 hour ride that went through the mountains, beautiful viewpoints, waterfall and eventually back down. You don’t have to be pro at riding, their horses are very well tamed. Would high recommend to anyone visiting Villa La Angostura

wonderful morning ride. fabulous horses and guide through amazing trails. a must for all horse lovers

Amazing experience. Horses are very well kept and treated. The ride is safe, and the staff is very professional

Very nice guide, but really just a walk through the forest. They promised 1:45 hours but we only got 1:20 for the same price (which already was quite expensive).

We had an amazing trail riding experience. The horses were well trained with great temperaments and Andres was knowledgeable and friendly. Beautiful scenery. Best trail ride I've been on.

A fabulous experience with a great guide called Leo. His English was impeccable and his maté the best we've had in Argentina! The views were amazing and horses wonderfully behaved.

(Translated by Google) A unique experience. My partner and I went on a night out that starts at sunset through the forest, bordering the beautiful river and ending at its mouth. Upon arrival the experience becomes unique with an incredible sunset over the mountains and a meal already prepared on the shore of the lake, very romantic, aesthetic and abundant. The experience ends by returning at night under the moonlight and the horses that are terribly good. Experience to repeat due to the quality of service and professionalism of the providers 10/10 (Original) Una experiencia única. Realizamos con mi pareja la salida nocturna que arranca al atardecer por el bosque bordeando el río bonito y terminando en la desembocadura del mismo. Al llegar la experiencia se vuelve única con un atardecer increíble sobre las montañas y una comida ya preparada sobre la orilla del lago, muy romántico, estético y abundante. La experiencia finaliza volviendo de noche bajo la luz de la luna y los caballos que son terriblemente buenos. Experiencia a repetir por la calidad de servicio y profesionalismo de los prestadores 10/10

(Translated by Google) The experience was very nice. We feel that they took great care of us and the horses are gentle. It's worth it. Leo, the guide, is a genius, you can see the passion he has for this activity and he taught us a lot about the place. (Original) La experiencia fue muy linda. Sentimos que nos cuidaron un montón y los caballos son mansos. Vale la pena. Leo, el guía, es un genio, se nota la pasión que tiene por esta actividad y nos enseñó mucho sobre el lugar.

(Translated by Google) Excellent experience! Beautiful horses, super attentive and friendly guides. They asked us about our previous experience with horses and were attentive to that. We went horseback riding in the middle of an imposing forest, with steep ups and downs but always feeling cared for and guided. (Original) Excelente experiencia! Hermosos caballos, los guias super atentos y amables. Nos preguntaron nuestra experiencia previa con caballos y estuvieron atentos a eso. Hicimos una cabalgata en medio de un bosuqe imponente, con subidas y bajadas pronunciadas pero siempre sintiendonos cuidados y guiados.

(Translated by Google) Divine walk in the company of Leo our guide!! Very nice horses and very nice landscapes!! Super recommended!!! (Original) Divino paseo en compañía de Leo nuestro guía !! Muy lindos caballos y muy lindos paisajes !! Súper recomendable !!!

(Translated by Google) Unique scenery, well worth the hike. It took me 3 hours and 15 minutes to go up and about 1 hour and a half to come down. It's worth it. Bring a coat and water. Appropriate footwear; if there's snow and mud, it can be slippery, especially on the way down. (Original) Paisaje único, vale la pena la caminata. Tarde 3 hs 15 minutos en subir y mas o menos 1 hora y media en bajar. Vale la pena. Lleven abrigo y agua. Calzado adecuado , si hay nieve y barro se pone patinozo y mas la bajada.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful cajón a few hours walk from Villa La Angostura. The walk from the town is a bit intense, be prepared with water and light food. Do in spring or summer. Streams with mineral water along the way. (Original) Cajón maravilloso a unas horas de caminata desde Villa La Angostura. La caminata desde el pueblo es un poco intensa, ir preparado con agua y alimentos livianos. Hacer en época de primavera o verano. Arroyos con agua mineral a lo largo del camino.

(Translated by Google) It is not good to reach the cajon passing the Belvedere viewpoint along the edge of the mountains. There is volcanic sand all over the slope, and the path is narrow, you slip a little and nothing stops you until you reach the valley. I was able to pass it, but I don't know how to enjoy it very much because you have to be very, very attentive. The valley is beautiful, I did it in summer. My friends from La Angostura say that the best time to see the landscape is in autumn (Original) No está bueno llegar al cajón pasando el mirador belvedere por el filo de las montañas. Hay arena volcánica en toda la ladera,y el camino es estrecho, resbalas un poco y nada te detiene hasta llegar al valle. Yo lo pude pasar, pero no sé disfruta mucho porque hay que estar muy muy atento. El valle es hermoso, lo hice en verano. Mis amistades de la angostura dicen que la mejor época para ver el paisaje es en otoño

(Translated by Google) The trek to reach the Cajon Negro takes 3 hours, you pass through the Inacayal waterfall, cross it and there the journey begins... I recommend resting a little at the waterfall since the next rest is an hour away, that is, 2 hours away… The trail is marked quite well with red markings on the trees you just have to pay attention. Eye! It is not an easy path, it is long and has MANY steep climbs. I recommend using sticks found below before starting the walk. (people are leaving them) they help a lot!!!! There are horseflies in areas. The stream that you see in different parts of the walk is beautiful, but when you reach the cajon it is even prettier. If you want to continue after the box you can go to the cross. We didn't do it. On the way back you can take the same path or go to the viewpoint... we did that... MANY STEEP CLIMBS... and descents that with fatigue don't hurt your knees either from the celebrations 😭 The BEAUTIFUL viewpoint. In total it took us 6 hours! If you return to the same path you went, it takes less time but be careful because you will miss a beautiful view. I do not recommend doing the black box with minors at all. (Original) El trekking para llegar al cajón negro son 3 horas, pasas por la cascada inacayal, la cruzas y ahí arranca la travesía… Recomiendo descansar un poquito en la cascada ya que el próximo descanso es a una hora es decir ya 2 de caminata… El sendero está marcado bastante bien con marcas rojas en los árboles solo hay que prestar atención. Ojo! No es un camino fácil , es largo y tiene MUCHAS subidas empinadas. Recomiendo usar palos que se encuentran abajo antes de arrancar la caminata. ( la gente los va dejando) ayudan muchísimo !!!! Por zonas hay tábanos . Es hermoso el arroyo que se ve en diferentes partes de la caminata pero al llegar al cajón aún es más lindo . Si queres seguir luego del cajón podes ir hasta la cruz . Nosotros no lo hicimos. A la vuelta podes retomar por el mismo camino o ir para el mirador … nosotros hicimos ese… MUCHÍSIMAS SUBIDAS EMPINADAS … y bajadas que cn el cansancio tampoco las festejas te duelen las rodillas 😭 El mirador HERMOSO. En total tardamos 6 horas ! Si retomas por el mismo camino que fuiste se tarda menos pero ojo porque te perdes una vista hermosa. No recomiendo para nada hacer el cajón negro con menores.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful! It's totally worth it!! I recommend taking the path on the right side that passes by the Incayal waterfall on the way out. And then return along the Miradors trail which is a little steeper! If your knees have good muscles that can withstand steep descents and do not damage joints, it is advisable to do it this way, but the other way around! The trek to enjoy it takes all day and it is worth taking the full day because it is beautiful and getting to that place with those color contrasts is something to admire!! The lady at the kiosk charges parking! 500 per car in February 2023! (Original) Hermoso! Vale totalmente la pena!! Recomiendo ir por el camino del lado derecho qué pasa por la cascada Incayal para la ida. Y luego regresar por el sendero de los Miradores que es un poco más empinado! Si tus rodillas tienen buenos músculos que aguanten bajadas empinadas y no se dañen articulaciones es conveniente hacerlo de esta forma, sino al revés! El trek para disfrutarlo lleva todo el día y vale la pena tomarse el día completo porque es hermoso y llegar a ese lugar con esos contrastes de colores es para admirar!! La señora del kiosko cobra estacionamiento! 500 por auto en febrero 2023!

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place. It is advisable to take the path towards the Inacayal waterfall (Mapuche land in quite poor condition, they charge for parking at the entrance) and not towards the viewpoint as indicated. Once there, cross the waterfall to face the path to the black box, which happens to be PN and is in very good condition and well signposted. It is a path without major difficulties (Original) Hermoso lugar. Es conveniente tomar el sendero hacia la cascada Inacayal (tierra mapuche en bastante mal estado, cobran estacionamiento en la entrada) y no hacia el mirador como se indica. Una vez ahí, cruzar la cascada para encarar el sendero al cajón negro, que pasa a ser de PN y se encuentra en muy buen estado y bien señalizado. Es un sendero sin mayores dificultades

(Translated by Google) The trail, from the Mapuche community to Cajón Negro, is beautiful. You walk through the forest, where you can see different ecosystems and varied vegetation. The walk is greatly enjoyed. The journey from Villa La Angostura to Cajón Negro is approximately 8 kilometers. The difficulty of the trail is mostly medium, although a few sectors can be considered high difficulty (for example, after crossing the Inacayal waterfall to continue towards El Cajón). Upon reaching the Cajón, you can enjoy a beautiful landscape, which, although it does not have a specific point that is too notable, is very enjoyable, especially for the peace, silence and tranquility of the place.
