Things to Do in Bariloche #1: Explore the Center
Bariloche seriously took me by surprise by how cute it was. The architecture has a ton of German influence, so it actually feels like a European village rather than a South American one. Take some time to simply wander the streets, and don't miss out on the square where Centro Civico is.
Bariloche has a beautiful German-inspired city center.

Bariloche is known for its incredible chocolate, and you can actually find giant chocolate shops all over the center! These are no ordinary chocolate shops though- you can find everything from local jams and liqueurs to stations where you can actually watch them make the chocolates right in front of you.
We definitely suggest checking out a few different chocolate shops, and bringing some home as a souvenir!

When we said there are incredible chocolate shops, we meant it. One of the most famous of the chocolate shops is Rapa Nui, which has several sections of the store including handmade truffles, ice cream, local products, and even an ice rink! Rates for iceskating are 4,000 pesos/hour, and there is no need for reservation beforehand.

Nope! We aren't done with the chocolate recommendations yet! Havanna is basically the Starbucks of Argentina, and they specialize in Argentina's most beloved dessert-the alfajor. All of the chocolate for these cookies actually comes from the factory in Bariloche, and there are tours you can take to learn about the history of chocolate, as well as the company Havanna itself.

The nature is just breathtaking in Bariloche, and what better way to see it then from a nice viewpoint? Well, there are a couple of great ones that you don't need to hike to get to, and can take a scenic chair lift or cable car ride instead!
Cerro Campanario
This chair lift brings you to one of the most stunning views of the area! The chairlift runs from 9 am to 5:30 pm, and brings you to cafe with big glass windows to appreciate the views from. There are also several balconies you can walk around to appreciate 360 degree views of the area.
You can also purchase a photo from the photographer at the top who captures everyone coming up! We typically don't go for this, but it was super cheap, and it was the only picture we were able to really get due to the harsh weather change once we arrived.
Cerro Otto
Unfortunately we didn't have the chance to experience Cerro Otto, as they are closed for May, and we were visiting the first week of May. However, this is beautiful cable car ride that gives sweeping views of the Lake Nahuel Huapi, and the outskirts of the city of Bariloche.

If there is one thing to do in Bariloche in Argentina, then definitely let Circuito Chico be it.

The town features an open market with kiosks for local crafts and snacks, as well as some great restaurants. Make sure to visit on with Wednesday or Sunday from mid morning to early afternoon, as this is when all of the kiosks open, and on Sundays you can experience curanto, which is a Chilean style barbecue where they cook the meat underground for hours!

You can either take a tour from Bariloche as a day trip, or rent a car and do it yourself. We liked doing the route of the seven lakes our own, as we were able to spend time in both Bariloche and San Martin de los Andes, as well as stop in other cool areas along the way.
The route of the seven lakes is the prettiest road in Patagonia.
Things to Do in Bariloche #13: Visit San Martin de los Andes
San Martin de los Andes may just be the most underrated city in Patagonia, and is definitely one of the top destination to check out in Argentina.
If you are planning on doing the route of the seven lakes, this is actually where it finishes.

Nahuel Huapi is a huge National Park in Bariloche, and there are several areas to visit. The area we are specifically talking about is near Villa Mascardi. Route 82 goes right into the park, and there is a ton to see and do! The one tricky part though is that the road is only open towards Pampa Linda (the road that goes through the park) until 2 pm and the road coming back opens up at 4 pm. Here are a few things you can see in this area:

Every October you can find large fields of tulips, just like you would in the Netherlands! We didn't have time last time, but plan on visiting there this October.
Things to Do in Bariloche #21: Take a Trip to Villa La Angostura
Just an hour up the road from Bariloche is another charming town that is worth visiting. It is the starting point for the route of the seven lakes, but also has plenty of other reasons for visiting! We particularly loved Bahia Brava, which is a bay with beaches, a pier, and super turquoise waters with mountains in the back.

Most of the things to do in Bariloche include physical activity, so you'll definitely need some relaxation during your trip! The amazing thing is that while a spa day can be extremely expensive in places like Europe and the US, it is surprisingly affordable in Argentina.
We had quite a bit of rain when we visited Bariloche in Argentina, and being that many activities were outside, we had to find things to do that were inside. So after our intense day doing CIrcuito Chico, there was no better option on that rainy day then taking advantage and using it as a spa day!
We got our spa day pass at Selina, which is where we were staying. Even if you are not a guest, it is open to everyone, and you'll find it's quite popular with the locals as well!
Things to Do in Bariloche #24: Go Horseback Riding
Horseback Riding is a special experience, and if you're not one for hiking, then this can be a great activity for you. While we aren't a fan of riding horses, we do know that it is a popular activity, especially for families with children.

What are the Best Months to Visit Bariloche in Argentina?
We decided to visit Bariloche in Argentina the first week of May, which is the middle of of their autumn season. The leaves were all colorful, and it was so beautiful at this time. While we had mostly good weather, it is also the start of the rainy season, so it can really be hit or miss at this time. May is the rainiest month, and also things start to close, so we would suggest the end of April if you'd like to experience the fall colors.
The most popular months to visit Bariloche are in the summer for hiking (from December to March) and in the winter for skiing (from June to August). If you'd like to get the best prices but still have good weather, we would suggest going late November to early December, or in March. The end of April is the best for fall colors with good weather, and October is a great month to visit if you'd like to see the tulip fields down in Trevelin (a city 4 hours south of Bariloche).
Being that Bariloche is surrounded by mountains, you can see snow on the top for a good portion of the year, which is why we loved visiting the beginning of May or the end of September!
