Resort in the Andean lakes — blue Lake Nahuel Huapi, a Swiss-style town and winter skiing, a gem of southern Argentina.

📍 Destination Overview

Bariloche, in the Andes of south-western Argentina on Lake Nahuel Huapi, is ringed by snowy peaks and forest - so Swiss-like it is called the Switzerland of Argentina. Blue lakes, green woods and white summits form a stunning picture, and famous chocolate gives the town Alpine flavour. Summers bring hiking; winters turn it into a ski resort.
