Los
Alerces National Park
A system of lakes linked by rivers that form dangerous rapids gives
this park a particular physiognomy. The centre of this system is Futalaufquen
Lake; towards the north of Esquel there are a number of other
lakes such as Cisne, Menendez, Rivadavia, Verde, Kuger & Stange,
Cholila and Puelo. The name of this National Park originated in the
“Fitzroya Cupressoides”, tree of a 2.5-metre diameter and about 3000
years of age. more...

and crafts. more...
