Rio Negro Estuary
Aerial view of the river mouth where the Rio Negro flows into the Atlantic Ocean shortly after takeoff.
El Cóndor Cliffs
Dramatic coastal cliffs and the oldest lighthouse in Patagonia located just south of Viedma.
Peninsula Valdés
The massive mushroom-shaped peninsula, home to diverse marine life and the Istmo Carlos Ameghino.
Puerto Madryn
Views of the coastal city and the deep blue waters of Golfo Nuevo as you approach Trelew.
Golfo Nuevo
A protected bay where whales are often visible from the air during the breeding season (June-December).
Book a window seat on the left for the best coastal views. Morning flights are ideal as the sun rises over the ocean, illuminating the cliffs and Peninsula Valdés. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes into the flight to capture the unique geography of the peninsula's narrow isthmus.

Patagonian Steppe
Vast, desolate plateaus and shrublands that define the arid interior of the region.
Ruta Nacional 3
The legendary highway that connects Buenos Aires to Tierra del Fuego, visible cutting through the desert.
Lower Chubut Valley
A strip of lush green irrigated farmland that contrasts sharply with the surrounding grey desert as you land.
The right side is better for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Watch for the sharp transition from the dry desert plateaus to the irrigated green fields of the Gaiman and Trelew area during the final descent. It offers a unique look at how the Chubut River transformed the local landscape.
