To get up and have breakfast in a hotel room that overlooks the mountains in the background and the Nahuel Huapi Lake reflecting the light of the sun as a natural mirror,is an memorable experience for those who love and admire the beauty of nature. This simple but priceless moment is the start to an unforgettable day.

At 09 o´clock in the morning we´ll be picked up at the hotel with a small group that will join us during the excursion. Once onboard the van we´ll drive around the “Short Circuit” along Bustillo Av. Which is the main avenue bordering the Nahuel Huapi Lake from downtown Bariloche to the Llao Llao Hotel. This circuit  goes along mountain roads and lakes very typical in Bariloche that at every turn shows us amazing views.

We arrive at the meeting point by the Nahuel Huapi Lake where our local tour guides are waiting for us and with the kayaks ready to begin the first leg of our crossing of the Nahuel Huapi and Moreno Lakes, where we´ll get to see their coastlines and hidden bays hardly ever visited by people. This way we´ll find ourselves rowing on crystal-clear,enjoying the sights and taking pictures of the beautiful views surrounding us.

We land on a beach where we leave the kayaks and make a stop to have lunch surrounded by nature while we relax and listen to the tour guides telling stories about Bariloche and the nearby villages.
