Close to the Chilean border, the 'Wild West' town of Esquel is a great stopover, particularly if you enjoy unusual modes of transport!

My suggestion

Even though the town itself doesn't have much on offer, there are some wonderful walks that lead to lakes or caves and you can always head down the valley on the La Trochita steam train.

A city in the province of Chubut in northern Patagonia and the best drop-off point for visiting the beautiful Los Alerces National Park.

My suggestion

Before going there, check to make sure the park is open to the public. It may be closed, even during peak season, due to weather conditions, animal diseases or even just for botanical research!
