Meet at the Tourist Information Office in Civic Center Square to begin our mountain adventure from Bariloche.

As we hike for approximately two hours, covering about 5 kilometers (3.1 miles), we will discuss the trails taken by Otto Meiling. We will reach the Berghof refuge, originally his residence and the first ski center in South America.
