Various tourist circuits allow visitors to come close to a live postcard of Paradise on Earth: the Seven Lakes Road, Huechulafquen Lake and the Lanín volcano, Chapelco winter and summer resort, hidden lakes like Queñi and Filo Hua Hum, solidified lava rivers like El Escorial, hot springs at Lahuen Co, volcanic beaches...
The city of San Martín de los Andes and Lanín National Park Headquarters are the starting point for every activity, concentrating most services. This includes beaches like Catritre, Quila Quina, Yuco and Nonthue, Lake Lácar, the Valdivian Jungle at Chachín waterfall, lake Queñi and Chapelco winter and summer resort.
Milennial Araucarias and the impressive Lanín volcano standing 3776 mts (12,388.5 ft) above sea level dominate the picture. With the city of Junín de los Andes as the main services spot in the area, the tourist circuits include Tromen Lake (starting point for hiking and climbing up the Lanín volcano), and Lakes Huechulafquen, Epulafquen and Paimún.
This area shows the most recent volcanic activity in the area, starting at El Escorial, 400 year old solidified lava river, to the Epulafquen hot springs. The main circuit connects Playa Bonita beach and Lolog Lake, with the magnificent Curruhue Grande and Curruhue Chico Lakes.
Connecting the city of San Martín de los Andes with other cities in the region such as Villa La Angostura and Villa Traful, the Seven Lakes Road is the main tourist corridor in Argentine Patagonia. This amazing succession of forests, lakes, mountains and viewpoints brings together three different protected areas driving barely over a hundred kilometers (aprox. 70 mi): Lanín, Nahuel Huapí and Los Arrayanes National Parks.
This is one of the most interesting tourist circuits in the region, where Lakes Meliquina and Filo Hua Hum play the leading roles. Fast-flowing white rivers like Caleufu, small native communities like Casa de Piedra together with the Limay and Traful rivers confluence running through the foothills of Valle Encantado (the Enchanted Valley)… These are just some of the numerous attractions in the area.
This area includes the downtown city area of San Martín de los Andes and its surroundings. Population has grown steadily and gradually pushing the city into the outskirts towards Junín de los Andes, covering the areas that are known as Vegas (see vocabulary tips). Attractions vary from the concentrated services in the city and its shopping area, to Rural Tourism options in the outskirts.
