Description
Leaving Bariloche we head south on Route 40 (which goes to El Bolsón), after passing Lake Gutierrez and Lake Mascardi we turn right onto the road to Tronador. This road leads to the Manso Medio River, where it forks. There, instead of crossing the bridge over the river, we continue along the road passing by Los Moscos and Hess lakes. Then we cross the bridge over the Roca River and arrive at a parking lot, from here the tour continues on foot and after a short walk we reach the Mirador de la Cascada los Alerces. This is a beautiful 20-meter high waterfall that the Manso River makes on its way shortly after leaving Lake Hess. This river of cold and crystalline waters has the particularity of flowing into the Pacific Ocean, in Chile. The waterfall can be appreciated from a wide viewpoint, surrounded by a dense forest of tall coihues and humid walls full of ferns and mosses. In this sector, the forest has the particularity of having some specimens of larches, hence the name of the waterfall. Then we continue the tour to Pampa Linda, a mandatory stop for lunch. After lunch we continue the tour to the end of the road and arrive at the foot of the highest mountain in the National Park, the Cerro Tronador, so named because of the sound produced by the breaking and detachment of the glaciers housed in its summits. From this point we can see the Manso River Glacier, commonly called 'Ventisquero Negro', reaching the end of the tour. From here we return to Bariloche.Includes

- Is it possible to climb to the summit? No, in this tour you will not reach the summit and there are no means of elevation you can take to ascend. Will I be in contact with the snow? No, the snow and glaciers are at the top of the mountain and the tour goes to the base. However, during the winter season it is normal to be in contact with snow in this area due to the frequent snowfalls.
