If you're in Bariloche and you fancy immersing yourself in nature, why not take this trekking route through Cerro Challhuaco? You'll enjoy a 4x4 experience, you'll hike through the forest, explore a beautiful lagoon and enjoy incredible mountain views.
Trekking & 4x4 Ride at Cerro Challhuaco
We'll pick you up from your hotel at 10:30 am, and then we'll take a thrilling 4x4 ride through the Argentinian countryside. Our destination is the Nahuel Huapi National Park, or more specifically, the base of the Cerro Challhuaco mountain, where we'll arrive after approximately one hour. Are you ready to be at 4265 feet above sea level (1300 metres)?
At the feet of this popular mount, we'll start our hiking route. For two to three hours (depending on the group), we'll climb up the trails of the Cerro Challhuaco. We'll pass through a deciduous tree forest and you'll be able to witness the incredible flora and fauna that surround the area. Plus, if you're lucky, all of this scenery will be snow-capped; it'll look like the perfect winter postcard!
Finally, we'll reach the Laguna Verde viewpoint, where you'll be able to admire the incredible mountain views! We'll take this opportunity to relax and enjoy a typical picnic lunch including a sandwich, a typical alfajor cookie and water.
Did you know that this is the only place in the world where the Challhuaco frog lives? If luck is on your side, you might even get to catch a glimpse of this unique species! Finally, we'll make our way make to Bariloche, where we'll drop you back at your hotel between 3 and 4 pm.
