Patagonia Norte, Argentina
Ruta de los Siete Lagos
Our journey through Northern Argentine Patagonia follows paths less traveled, venturing into some of the most remote and spectacular areas of the Andean Lake District.
Upon arriving in the lakeside city of Bariloche, we begin with an introductory ride along the beautiful Circuito Chico. From there, we cross the high, rugged Paso Córdoba, descending toward San Martín de los Andes—the adventure capital of Argentina.
Here, you will enjoy two contrasting days of mountain biking at Cerro Chapelco, traversing territories historically inhabited by the Mapuche people. We continue with a scenic loop passing Laguna Rosales and Lanín National Park before heading south along the legendary Seven Lakes Route.
Pedaling through pristine forests, rolling fields, and alongside rushing rivers, we reach Villa La Angostura on the shores of Nahuel Huapi National Park.
With five diverse and rewarding days of cycling, this tour offers one of the most authentic and comprehensive ways to experience Patagonia’s awe-inspiring landscapes, all while providing exceptional value.
