Info on Bariloche 
Comprising almost the entire southern half of South America, Argentina is the world's eighth largest country, covering an area of 2.8 million square km. Argentina possesses some of the world's tallest mountains, expansive deserts, and impressive waterfalls, with the diversity of the land ranging from wild, remote areas in southern Patagonia to the bustling metropolis of Buenos Aires in the north. It borders Bolivia and Paraguay to the North, Brasil, Uruguay and the Atlantic Ocean to the East, and the Atlantic Ocean and Chile to the West and South.
Bariloche and the Lake District are known for their outdoor activities. You can climb countless craggy mountains, fly-fish for giant trout, raft world-class whitewater or hop on a horse. And during winter -- North America's summer -- nearby Cerro Catedral is Argentina's largest and most popular ski resort, offering runs almost 2 1/2 miles long. There's enough to do here to stay busy all summer and winter. Travelers seeking calmer pursuits have plenty to do as well. Bariloche's chocolate shops seem to outnumber all other businesses, tempting you to indulge as you explore trendy boutiques, sportswear stores, ice-cream parlors, Italian restaurants and steakhouses. The narrow, hilly streets buzz with activity, and there's always great people-watching -- the unofficial national sport of Argentina. For a break from all the fun, take some scenic daytrips and explore trendy San Martín to the north, hippie El Bolsón to the south, or the Chilean border to the west. And for a special splurge, indulge in afternoon tea at the gracious Llao Llao Hotel, located on a serene, green hilltop overlooking the blue fingers of Lago Nahuel Huapi. Unforgettable!
