During this activity, we'll enjoy a pleasant hike up to Cerro Otto, explore the Berghof refuge, and visit the Casa del Montañés museum. Here, we'll delve into the history of Otto Meiling, the German pioneer who impacted this area.

Description

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

Our adventure starts with a stroll through Bariloche's German Quarter. Leaving the city center, we'll hike uphill along the slopes of Cerro Otto, gaining stunning views of the surrounding mountains and lakes.

During the hike, we’ll discuss the routes of pioneering German mountaineer, Otto Meiling. After approximately two hours of climbing, covering about 5 kilometers (3.1 miles), we'll reach the Berghof refuge, originally his residence and the first ski center in South America.

We'll also visit the Casa del Montañés Museum at the Berghof Lodge, immersing ourselves in Otto Meiling's history and his legacy's significance to Bariloche. After the museum visit, you'll have free time to explore the refuge and enjoy lunch at local restaurants.

After 4 hours of exploration, we'll conclude our tour at the refuge. If preferred, we can assist in arranging private transportation for your return to Bariloche.
