San Carlos de Bariloche, in northern Patagonia, sits on the shore of Nahuel Huapi Lake, surrounded by mountains and forests. Its stone and wood architecture and chocolate shops give it an Alpine feel.
The town
The Centro Cívico, built of stone and wood, overlooks the lake. Mitre Street is lined with chocolate shops. Cerro Campanario, reached by chairlift, offers one of the best views in Patagonia.
Lakes and mountains
The Circuito Chico is a scenic drive around lakes and forests. In winter, Cerro Catedral is South America's largest ski resort.
