Andean Lakes Cruise

At the agreed time, we will meet at your selected pickup point. From there, we’ll board our transport and depart from Bariloche, setting our course towards the stunning Llao Llao Peninsula, approximately 30 minutes away. Nestled in the heart of this peninsula is Puerto Pañuelo, the initial destination of our Andean lakes exploration.

A catamaran will greet us at the pier, ready to set sail on a delightful 1-hour boat trip. Throughout the voyage, discover the glacial roots of the lake while soaking in the breathtaking landscapes of Patagonia before we return to our vehicle.

After about a 20-minute drive, we will reach Puerto Alegre, where another catamaran awaits to take us across the crystalline waters of Lake Frías, also formed by glaciers. Following this scenic cruise, we will head back to the bus and cross into Chile. Welcome to Chile! Our next destination is Villa Peulla, where you will enjoy a 2-hour break to relax and grab a bite to eat.

Refreshed, we embark on another excursion aboard a catamaran, gliding over the clear waters of Lake Todos los Santos while enjoying breathtaking views of the Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park from an extraordinary angle.

You may choose to conclude the excursion at Petrohué Port or continue with us for the final segment of the journey. This will entail a switch from boat to bus, during which you’ll be treated to magnificent views of the volcanic summits of Osorno and Calbuco as we traverse the Chilean Andes.

To finish the day, we will arrive in the vibrant downtown Puerto Varas, marking the end of this remarkable 12-hour adventure.
