D A Y   9:   E L   B O L S O N





We had some extra days going south, and decided to spend three days in El Bolson, the hippie capital of Argentina, located two hours south of Bariloche.
Its a small city, and there is not a lot happening. Everybody is very tranquilo, they all got dreads and Bob Marley red/green/yellow bracelets, and they hang around not doing much, wanting to write a book etc.
And that's what we did as well - not too much.  We spent one day hanging around in the town, drinking local fruit beer and eating delicious ice-cream. And we spent one day hiking.

Ice cream from Jauja




What to do:

- Lago Puelo, a beach close to the hostel. A great place for a swim in the summer.


- Hike Cerro Currumahida  (1100moh)

- If you have extra time check out "Cajun del Azul". It looks like a cool hike with some turquoise lagunas you can swim in.


Where to stay:

How to get there:
We took an two hour bus from Bariloche for only 47 pesos (50nok).
