Patagonia is synonymous with adventure See map

Adventure tourism promotes outdoor activities and for this it is also called "active tourism". It tries to explore the places in full contact with nature and Patagonia Argentina is ideal because it offers different climates and geographies in each destination. From valleys to glaciers, through rivers, lakes and waterfalls, including the ocean with its sandy beaches and mountain ranges to enjoy a truly memorable trip.

For those who enjoy the outdoors but still do not dare to full adventure they can take floating, horseback riding, hiking and mountain biking trails of low complexity. For those who dare a little more, Patagonia offers hiking, rafting, kayaking, climbing and other activities related to adventure sports.
