Los Alerces National Park Tour
After picking you up at your hotel in Esquel at 2:30 pm, we'll drive to Los Alerces National Park, located on the border between Argentina and Chile.
We will start the route crossing the Percey River by the "Puente de Fierro" (Iron Bridge), an old footbridge used by carters. We will follow the route alongside the Terraplén and La Coqueta lagoons. Nearby, we will see lake Futalaufquen and the village with the same name, with stone buildings designed by architect Alejandro Bustillo.
After admiring these landscapes, we will visit the Alero de Pinturas Rupestres, which houses paintings over 1600 years old, a testimony of the Tehuelche culture. The tour will continue to the viewpoints near the Museum of Nature, where we will learn about local wildlife.
We will make brief stops at the Futalaufquen lodge and Puerto Limonao to admire and photograph the surrounding lakes, mountains, valleys, and forests.
Finally, we will return, aiming for an arrival at your hotel in Esquel at 7:30 pm.
