This is one of the best and most complete programs organized in the area. We combine different activities such as rafting, horse riding and hiking, to travel this pass between Argentina and Chile . We will have the opportunity to appreciate the settler’s lifestyle, whose traditions have stayed intact since their first days as pioneers in the area. As an optional, you can return to Bariloche by the “Cruce Andino Circuit“.
