Free Tour discovers the history of Bariloche

  • 2 hours
  • Spanish

Description

The proposal places us in what is today San Carlos de Bariloche. 

Yesterday the region of Nahuel Huapi was an area of glacial geography near the Andes Mountains.
A meeting place where locals and outsiders exchanged cultural and material elements, giving rise to Vurilofche, now called Bariloche, the most visited city in Argentine Patagonia. 

Our tour focuses on the 20th century and the commercial power in the region.
What did they trade? What route did they use? 

We will seek answers in the European legacy of Bariloche, discovering along the way constructions that still testify to this timber era. We will see the most relevant constructions made after the creation of the National Park, without overlooking the stories and legends of the town.

During the tour of “the Patagonian jewel,” we will learn about the great evolution that Bariloche experienced, from being a village to becoming one of the main tourist destinations in Argentina.

In the guided visit, we start by walking along the shore of Lake Nahuel Huapi, doing geolocation and presenting the lake in numbers. Then, with the perspective of the architects who created it, we will see the Civic Center and the National Park headquarters with a brief stop in its gardens, and then visit the Club Andino Bariloche and the surrounding constructions that testify to the town it once was and the secrets it holds.
Uphill, we go to the neighborhood where suspicions of residents closely related to National Socialism were confirmed, then there are winding streets and stairs that lead us to the Cathedral in neo-Gothic style. The temple was designed by Alejandro Bustillo, one of the most prominent Argentine architects in the first half of the 20th century. We tour the center, and I will leave you with the best gastronomic recommendations.

This is a free tour, and it is important to clarify that the contribution should be in accordance with the work received by the guide, with an estimated cost of $10 USD per person.
