I was born in Northern Patagonia, Bariloche city, raised between the mountains and the magical Andean Patagonian forest where I started wondering around when I was a child. Later in time, I had the opportunity to visit almost every edge of the Patagonia Region: from the Atlantic sea, across the Andean Range and to the Pacific Sea. Five years ago I had the chance to visit the southernmost area from this region, which was the moment in which I decided I wanted to work and live in the mountains. Nowadays, I have a hybrid lifestyle in which I spend some months of the year working in Northern Patagonia with Andesitica Adventures, some months in El Chalten, and hopefully some months travelling to other mountains that I haven't been to. I am truly passionate about nature, mountains and the native culture from Patagonia. I will always do my best to preserve the places we visit while we enjoy and imbibe their essence. Feel free to ask for a customized tour including hiking, camping, and more! I am currently working at Bariloche . For guided tours at El Chalten please contact me to check my availability to travel.

Overview of your Bariloche tour

In the outskirts of Bariloche city, after a bit over an hour drive to the East, we find Carmen de Villegas Mountain, surrounded by the Patagonian Steppe. With the Limay river on its base, we'll start our hike alternating between hills and plateaus. Get ready to contemplate the inmensity from this views: both the city and the mountain range behind it, as well as the Nahuel Huapi Lake and the steppary flat lands in opposition to the forest. Definitely an interesting place for admiring the contrast of landscapes in the region and to take amazing photos... maybe even of Condors flying around us! This is a medium difficulty hike where we'll be covering a total distance of 12 km with an elevation gain of 600 mts. Depending on the pace, the average time hiking could go from 5 to 7 hours. Please note that there are not refilling water sources on the trail so be sure to bring enough.
