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.

This unique tree formation, declared a natural monument, inspired Walt Disney to compose the cartoon for the movie Bambi.

To finish, all that remains is to retrace this dream itinerary and return to Puerto Pañuelo.

    Our first stop will be on the Quetrihue Peninsula where the Arrayanes Forest is located, which belongs to Villa la Angostura. A small town in Neuquén.. In this forest is the famous little house that is said to have inspired Walt Disney to draw Bambi. The little house (it was previously a pioneer's house and today a candy store) and the forest are beautiful and make you feel like you are in a story. The Arrayán tree is one of the most beautiful in the forests of Bariloche, the trunk has a very different light cinnamon color, it has small green leaves and beautiful white flowers, it really attracts a lot of attention. Inside the Forest there is a circular and super accessible wooden track, which ends in the pastry shop.
