Nahuel Huapi Lake, the largest in Northern Argentine Patagonia, lies at the heart of the breathtaking Nahuel Huapi National Park. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks and lush Andean forests, its deep blue waters span more than 215 square miles, branching into scenic arms dotted with countless bays, islands, and inlets.
The lake offers everything for an unforgettable day on the water—spectacular landscapes, varied fishing grounds, and the chance to target healthy populations of brown, rainbow, and brook trout. To ensure the best conditions, we select the launch site according to weather and fishing opportunities.
Trips can be tailored to your preference, with the option of a full-day outing (8 hours on the water) or a half-day adventure (4 hours on the water).

Nahuel Huapi Lake is located just outside Bariloche, with driving times usually under 30 minutes. We typically meet between 7:00 and 8:00 AM at a designated point in town before heading to the selected launch site to begin our adventure.
Once the boat and gear are ready, we fish from about 9:00–10:00 AM until 1:00 PM, when we pause to enjoy a well-earned lakeside meal. After lunch, we return to the water and continue fishing until around 4:00–5:00 PM. We then head back to your accommodation or the agreed meeting point.
FAQ’s
Frequently Asked Questions
I don’t own fishing gear. Do you provide it?
No worries—we provide everything you need. All equipment is included and tailored to the waters you’ll be fishing, including rods, reels, lines, and flies.
Do I need to know how to fly fish?
Not at all. Our guides love introducing newcomers to this fascinating sport and will do their best to help you land your first trout on your very first fly-fishing experience. Alternatively, most of the waters we fish are also suitable for conventional spinning gear.
I’m vegetarian/vegan. Do you offer alternative food choices?
Absolutely. We’re happy to adapt meals to your dietary needs. Just let us know about any preferences or restrictions in advance, and we’ll make sure you enjoy the food as much as the scenery and the fishing.
What personal gear should I bring?
We provide all fishing equipment, food, and beverages. You should bring:
- Sunglasses (essential for both safety and comfort while fishing)
- A warm layer, as Patagonia’s weather can change quickly
- A hat and sunscreen for sun protection
My partner doesn’t want to fish. Can they come along?
Of course! They can relax and enjoy the stunning scenery and delicious food. And who knows—after a day surrounded by Patagonia’s beauty, they might even be tempted to give fishing a try.
