Puerto Blest, Cascada de los Cántaros, and Lago Frías from Bariloche

Description

🌿 An expedition to Patagonia that you will remember for a lifetime

  • Can you imagine sailing between jungle-covered mountains, listening to the roar of a hidden waterfall, and reaching an emerald lake that looks like it was hand-painted?

    This is not a fantasy landscape. It is
    Puerto Blest and Lago Frías, a corner so deep and vibrant in Nahuel Huapi National Park that it seems made to stay in memory.

    You board the boat, cross glacial waters, walk on wet jungle walkways, climb stairs surrounded by ancient trees, and suddenly... there it is:
    Cascada de los Cántaros, falling among the vegetation like a secret that Patagonia kept for centuries.

    But that's not all. The adventure continues at
    Lago Frías, an impossible green mirror that makes you doubt if what you see is real. Amidst the stillness, nature breathes. And so do you.

"When we arrived at Lago Frías, there was a general silence. It was like being inside a documentary." — Luis, Córdoba
