HIKING & TREKKING
The Andean Lake District and Patagonia offer some of the best trekking in Argentina.
The trekking at the Perito Merino Glacier near El Calafate in Patagonia is unforgettable.
In addition, the village of El Chalten is known as one of the greatest hiking destinations in the world. Explore the mountains of Fitz Roy and Los Torres, along with the lakes, glaciers and nearby forests of this area.

SKIING
From May to September, the eastern slopes of the Andes offer good
skiing options. Bariloche is the oldest most established area but
there are a number of other options.
This is a great destination for skiers from northern climates who miss this great sport during our summer.

WINE TASTING
Argentina has a long tradition of producing top quality wines. They
are probably best known for their Malbec, but also produce wonderful
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and others. The valleys between Mendoza,
San Juan and La Rioja produce some of the best wines of Argentina.
Many of the wineries of this region are open for wine tastings and
GL Tours can arrange interesting wine tours for individuals or groups.
