Bariloche is a stunning tranquil town, situated in NW Patagonia by the Andes, in the heart of the lake district and within the Nahuel Huapi National Park. It has much to offer all year round: wonderful hiking in summer and autumn and fantastic skiing in the winter and spring. It is also a great place to find some nightlife or just relax in a cafe while sampling our famous delicious chocolate and cakes.

Bariloche was founded in 1902, and in the ’40 became a ski and tourism pole for celebrities from all around the world. The city was designed following the Alpine style, while many immigrants from central Europa settled down in this area developing mountain sports and retaining many traditions.
