When people think of hiking in Patagonia, catching views of the Torres del Paine and Mt. Fitz Roy come to mind. If you’ve already been there and done that, here’s a route that will let you see another side of this part of the world - the Hut to Hut trek in Bariloche.

Wander through the lush lenga forests of the Río Van Titter Valley, where the trail leads to striking rock formations, a signature of the Patagonian landscape. Pause at the tranquil Lake Jakob, with Refugio Jakob providing a cozy retreat amidst the towering peaks.
