Tour with Navigation to the Arrayanes Forest and Victoria Island

Overview

This is one of the must-see Bariloche tours that you can do all year round, regardless of the weather. Begin this adventure with pickup from your Bariloche hotel. From there, you will transfer to the port of Puerto Pañuelo, located just 25 km outside the city. Board a boat and sail towards Lake Nahuel Huapi; Be sure to have your camera handy for views of the Nahuel Huapi National Park landscape. After 30 minutes of travel on the water, disembark at the Anchorena port on Victoria Island. After boarding again, we head to the Quetrihue Peninsula, where the myrtle forest is located with its characteristic cinnamon color, stone bark and a famous wooden cabin.
