Villa la Angostura

Located in the southern part of the Neuquén Province, just 82 km from Bariloche along a breathtakingly beautiful road, and a little over 100 km from San Martín de los Andes via one of Patagonia’s most fascinating routes – the Road of the Seven Lakes – this charming and peaceful village is nestled among lakes and mountains.

Surrounded by Nahuel Huapi National Park – large enough to fit Buenos Aires three times – and the Arrayanes National Park, a unique place in the world known for the cinnamon-colored tone of its exclusive forest species. A place enchanted by nature, where the breathtaking mountain scenery is worth admiring in all four seasons. Trails through one-of-a-kind forests, impressive waterfalls, vast lakes, and small streams that carve through the region’s terrain invite visitors to explore on horseback, by bicycle, on vehicle excursions, or by sailing across the lakes on modern catamarans and sailboats.

It is a favorite destination for many American and European travelers who come to its lakes and rivers in search of the famous Patagonian trout, especially for sport fishing with fly casting (artificial fly fishing with catch and release). It features Argentina’s only boutique ski center (Cerro Bayo), a shopping area with renowned brands, excellent hotels, and internationally recognized cuisine, making this mountain village a truly special destination.
