Patagonia
Argentina
Mar 18 - Apr 15, 2022
This is the wild and pristine wilderness that dreams are made of. For the nature lovers, hikers, explorers, adrenaline seekers, and landscape-obsessed photographers, Bariloche will be the town that kicks off our obsession with Patagonia. We'll want to take it slow during the week to prep for the many weekend adventures that await us: paragliding, kayaking, overnight hikes to legendary summits, zip-lining, biking, road-tripping, and nature walks where it'll be hard to put our cameras down. Let's spend a month in the mountain air, letting nature's beauty take ahold of us.

Experience Patagonia with the Tribe
Take on Bariloche with the Tribe and discover a new side to Argentina. Open your mind to the cocreated community experiences, adventures, and classic WiFi Tribe moments that'll make our time here one of a kind.
Get outside at sea level or a bird's eye view
Bariloche is a four-season town, and the autumn months open up the flood gates for adrenaline-pumping activities. Bike the winding roads of Circuito Chico and hit the many trails along the way that summit to incredible views. Fly like a bird while paragliding above Bariloche and kayak to scenic waterfalls on Nahuel Huapi, the region's most prominent lake. Patagonia is for adventurers, and we won't waste a second testing out the outdoor sports around us.
Stargaze while staying overnight at a refugio
Venture just outside of town to hike Cerro Catedral or drive to see Cerro Tronador and be rewarded with an unmatched starry-night sky during our overnight at the refugio. Atop Cerro Catedral, we'll take a chilly dip in the lagoon while the sun is still shining. Over at Tronador, we'll traverse between two glaciers and get our feet a little snowy in the process. These hikes are not to be missed.
Road trip through the Ruta de Siete Lagos
A road trip through the Ruta de Siete Lagos on the famous Rt. 40 is filled with pullovers to the 7 lakes that sit between La Angostura and San Martin de los Andes. When we hop in the car, grab a window seat to gawk at the views along the way. A new snowcapped mountain and flowery field will meet us around every turn.
Indulge in a steady diet of beer & chocolate
In the chocolate capital of Argentina, why not top off every great work week with a sweet treat? Try Mamushka for authentic bites or Rapanui to dig into some ice cream too. Weekends are best to stop at Patagonia Cervecería for a cold one. Grab an Adirondack chair, sip leisurely, and try every beer on the menu, you'll never want to step away from this view.
Meet the Chapter Hosts
