Andean Crossing by Bike

We leave the city to immerse ourselves in the spectacular landscapes of the Reloncaví Fjord. After a short boat transfer, the ride unfolds along gravel and paved roads that follow crystal-clear waters and lush forests of giant ferns and nalcas, trees typical of this region. Arriving in Puelo brings us into contact with a small village that preserves the authenticity of Chilean Patagonia, with an overnight stay in cozy bungalows surrounded by nature.

The journey continues toward the end of the Reloncaví Fjord, passing through landscapes of rare beauty where the deep green of fern and nalca forests blends with the blue of the ocean. Along the way, you pass through the picturesque village of Cochamó, known as the "Patagonia of the Alps" for its natural grandeur. The day ends on the shores of Lake Llanquihue, where cozy bungalows offer a peaceful and scenic retreat.

The ride crosses a land rich in lakes nestled among mountains and the rainforests of Pérez Rosales National Park. The vivid colors of Lakes Rupanco and Puyehue create a breathtaking backdrop, while the fresh, pure air revitalizes the senses. In the afternoon, you can enjoy the famous natural hot springs of Aguas Calientes—a relaxing experience that rejuvenates both body and mind after the day’s effort. Overnight stay in bungalows.

You tackle the majestic Puyehue Pass, the connecting point between Chile and Argentina, surrounded by a mountain landscape of extraordinary beauty. After the climb, a scenic descent leads to Lakes Espejo, Correntoso, and Nahuel Huapi—shimmering bodies of water that tell the geological story of these lands. Arrival in Villa La Angostura, a charming town on Lake Nahuel Huapi, marks the end of the day, with accommodation in comfortable hotels.

A day dedicated to rest or to exploring on foot the Quetrihué Peninsula, famous for its Arrayanes forest—trees with reddish trunks and velvety bark, a unique ecosystem in the world. The 12 km trek immersed in nature offers unforgettable views, and those who prefer can return by boat, enjoying a pleasant journey across the lake. Evening and overnight stay at the hotel.

Through Nahuel Huapi and Lanín National Parks, you follow the famous "Camino de los Siete Lagos" (Seven Lakes Route), renowned for its lake landscapes, conifer forests, and panoramic views of the Andes. The route offers encounters with pristine and diverse nature, featuring shimmering waters, clear skies, and majestic mountains. The day ends in the peaceful town of San Martín de los Andes, where you stay overnight in a hotel.

The final day of cycling leads along Lake Meliquina and the Córdoba Pass, crossing mountainous areas and crystal-clear rivers. The final descent passes through unique rock formations and follows the course of the Limay River, offering spectacular views all the way to the arrival in San Carlos de Bariloche. Here, the journey concludes with a farewell dinner in a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Note: it is possible to extend the trip with an extra day to explore the most beautiful and scenic spots around Bariloche.
