Search flights from BRC to EQS
Mount Tronador
The highest peak in the region, featuring seven glaciers and permanent snowfields that dominate the northwestern horizon.
Andean Cordillera
Continuous views of the jagged, snow-dusted spine of the Andes as you fly south toward the Chubut province.
Los Alerces National Park
Views of ancient Alerce tree forests and the intricate network of connected lakes including Lake Rivadavia.
Lake Futalaufquen
A stunning, large glacial lake surrounded by steep granite peaks and dense valdivian temperate rainforests.
Mount Piltriquitrón
The 'hanging from the clouds' mountain that towers over the town of El Bolsón, visible mid-flight.
The right side is essential for mountain lovers. For the best photography, choose an afternoon flight when the sun illuminates the western faces of the Andes. Be ready immediately after takeoff from BRC, as Mount Tronador appears quickly to the west. Ensure you have a window seat clear of the wing to fully appreciate the deep glacial valleys.

Bariloche Cityscape
A bird's-eye view of the city of San Carlos de Bariloche and its iconic German-influenced architecture along the lake shore.

The dramatic visual boundary where the lush Andean forests abruptly end and the vast, arid golden plains of the steppe begin.
Lake Mascardi
The eastern curve of this V-shaped glacial lake, known for its deep blue and emerald hues.
La Trochita Route
