Villa Meliquina & Filo Hua Hum Lake Day Trip
After picking you up from your hotel in downtown San Martin de los Andes at 2:30 pm, we'll travel southward along Route 40, showcasing Patagonia's natural landscapes to the lake region.
Our journey will take us across part of the Cordoba Pass, an alternative route to the Seven Lakes Road, which features breathtaking scenery. As we head south, we'll pass by beautiful Lake Meliquina.
Our first stop will be at Ruca Cura, or the Stone House, a hidden cave considered sacred by the local Mapuche community. Inside, we'll see cave paintings dating back over ten thousand years, offering insight into Mapuche culture. The natural stone balcony overlooking the Caleufu River is notable.
Next, we'll visit the shores of Filo Hua Hum Lake, where you'll have time to explore the beach or try local pastries during a lakeshore break.
Our trip will conclude with a visit to Villa Meliquina, where we can take photos of the landscapes. Legend suggests visitors should make a wish while gazing at the lake's refractions.
At 7:30 pm, we'll begin our return journey to San Martin de los Andes, ending the tour at your hotel.
