It is not necessary to leave the country to see beautiful landscapes. Neuquén, like other provinces in Argentina, offers fantastic places where you can do fishing, lake walks and hot springs, while you can enjoy and observe rivers, forests and mountains. That’s why, At Ámbito Financiero we bring you three unmissable destinations in Neuquén to visit this summer when we all need to disconnect from the routine.
The Route of the 7 lakes
At the southern end of the 180 kilometers of postcards that travel the Route of the 7 lakes, Villa La Angostura shines with excursions such as the Arrayanes Forest (by lake boat, or by bicycle or walking path), to the Belvedere viewpoint and the Inacayal waterfall, the viewpoints of Cerro Bayo and the Bonito river waterfallwalks that include a visit to the charming Market and the Artisans Fair.
Almost halfway, Villa Traful, nestled on the mountainside, looks like a balcony over the majestic lake that bears its name, with pure, crystalline and uncontaminated waters. The variety of circuits to enjoy the nature of the Nahuel Huapi National Park doing trekking to the Las Mellizas lagoons or the Arroyo Blanco and Catarata waterfalls, as well as the excursion embarked on the majestic Lake Traful and the obligatory visit to the mythical Submerged Forest, are options that no one in the area can miss.
Lake Huechulafquen and the Lanín volcano
There just from Junín de los Andes, where you can get there either by Route 40, through Zapala, or by Route 237, passing through Piedra del Águila, Lanín National Park is a call to live its nature and spiritual culturestarting with a walk through the imposing Vía Christi Sculpture Park, just meters from the city, which offers one of the most exciting experiences to live.

The wind mountain range in northern Neuquén
The north of the province is a very attractive alternative, both from the richness of its history and its ancestral traditions, as well as from the magnetism of places such as the Colomichicó archaeological site, the Protected Natural Areas, the Tromen, the Domuyo volcano and the Epulauquen lagoonswhere circuits and paths lie to admire the characteristic landscapes of the region step by step.
The ideal combination of tranquility, tradition and adventure unfolds through rivers, valleys and lagoonsamong which towns emerge that await the arrival of visitors to show all their splendor, such as Chos Malal, Andacollo, Huinganco, Las Ovejas and Manzano Amargo, Varvarco, which are among the most visited destinations, which are accessed by leaving National Route 40 to the west, along Route 43.
