You can't explore Bariloche on foot. At least not if you want to experience its true essence. Did you know that some of Patagonia's most beautiful landscapes are outside<\/em> del circuito tur\u00edstico? En este art\u00edculo te cuento lo que aprend\u00ed despu\u00e9s de tres viajes a Bariloche (s\u00ed, soy de repetir), y c\u00f3mo tener un auto fue la clave para descubrir caminos que parec\u00edan de otro planeta.<\/p>\n Today I'm sharing with you Must-See Scenic Routes<\/strong> that you can explore by car. But I\u2019ll also share some real tips\u2014the kind you won\u2019t find in guidebooks. If you\u2019re wondering what to see in Bariloche by car, I guarantee that by the end of this post, you\u2019ll want to hit the road right away.<\/p>\n Let's start with the easiest part\u2014and the most beautiful. The Circuito Chico in Bariloche is a 65-kilometer loop that combines the best of the south: lakes, mountains, forests, photo opportunities, hikes, delicious food, and tranquility. All in one.<\/p>\n Start from downtown, take Bustillo Avenue, and begin driving along the Nahuel Huapi. You don't need a GPS. You'll see signs and other cars taking the same route.<\/p>\n What shouldn't you miss?<\/strong><\/p>\n Recommended time:<\/strong> At least 3 hours. If you want to take your time, set aside half a day.<\/p>\n Este parque se conecta con el Circuito Chico, pero es otra experiencia. Ac\u00e1 no hay tanto tr\u00e1fico ni turistas con c\u00e1mara. Solo vos, el auto y la naturaleza.<\/p>\n You can park your car in the marked parking lots and hike some easy trails. The Arrayanes trail is short and very beautiful. In the fall, it's a spectacular display of colors.<\/p>\n The Llao Llao Hotel is nearby. I like to stop there, even if it's just for a cup of coffee. There's something about that view that always makes me feel small.<\/p>\n Access:<\/strong> exclusively by car or on private tours.<\/p>\n If you have a whole day and feel like driving, this is the<\/em> A drive. The Seven Lakes Route is a parade of landscapes: lakes, snow-capped mountains, and endless forests. And best of all: the road is in excellent condition.<\/p>\n In just 85 km, you'll reach Villa La Angostura, a cool mountain town. Stop at the lookout points:<\/p>\n Personal tip:<\/strong> Have some homemade food downtown and come back when the sun starts to set. The sky turns pink, and the street takes on a whole new look.<\/p>\n Esta combinaci\u00f3n me la pas\u00f3 un chico de la oficina de alquiler cuando fui a buscar el auto. Gracias a \u00e9l descubr\u00ed que el Cerro Catedral no es solo para esquiar. Fuera de temporada se puede hacer trekking, andar en bici o simplemente subir y mirar.<\/p>\n On the way back, head down the road toward Lake Guti\u00e9rrez. It\u2019s easy to get to, has a beach, and plenty of shade. It\u2019s the perfect spot to grab a bite to eat next to your car and dip your feet in the water if you don\u2019t feel like going in all the way.<\/p>\n The answer is simple: because you can't really explore Bariloche on an organized tour. Having your own vehicle gives you time, freedom, and access to places that aren't included on any tour.<\/p>\n I was lucky enough to rent from Invernalia Rent a Car | Car Rental in Argentina<\/strong>, y me facilitaron todo. Me entregaron el auto directamente en el aeropuerto, con seguro y cadenas para nieve incluidas (fui en agosto). Y lo m\u00e1s importante: no era un auto viejo. La flota de Invernalia es moderna, y eso se nota cuando vas por caminos de ripio o hielo.<\/p>\n And, even though it may sound obvious: always bring water, a cell phone charger, and a snack. Distances can be deceiving.<\/p>\n When someone asks me what to see in Bariloche by car, I always say the same thing: everything<\/strong>. Porque no es solo un lugar, es un viaje. Y si ten\u00e9s la posibilidad de alquilar un auto, hacelo. Vas a descubrir lugares que no est\u00e1n en Instagram ni en TikTok. Lugares que se sienten tuyos.<\/p>\n If you have plenty of time, go explore. If you're short on time, do the same. And if you have any questions, call Invernalia Rent a Car | Car Rental in Argentina<\/strong>. They know every nook and cranny and are always willing to lend a hand.
