Bandurrias Viewpoint Hiking Activity
Bandurrias Viewpoint Hiking Activity
At 9 am, we'll see you on the beach of Lácar Lake next to the deer sculptures. From this point in San Martín de los Andes, we'll set off on a hike to the Bandurrias Viewpoint.
On our 3-mile (5-kilometre), low-difficulty hike, you'll learn all about the biodiversity of the Patagonian Andean forests. The forests here are home to species such as Dombey's beech and monkey puzzle trees. You'll also get to see some of the large and striking birds found in this area, including condors and giant woodpeckers.
We'll stop at different points along the way at an altitude of 2,620 feet (800 metres), from which we'll be able to see the summit of Abanico and some of the other nearby Andes Mountains. Our route will then take us to the Bandurrias Viewpoint, which is one of the best places to take in the beauty of Lácar Lake.
When we get to the viewpoint, we'll admire extraordinary panoramic views of this once glacial lake and its incredible Andean surroundings. After observing Lácar Lake from the Bandurrias Viewpoint, we'll take a group photo in this natural spot and make our way back to the starting point.
Our arrival back at the meeting point is scheduled for 12 noon.
