The Cerro Bella Vista (1710 m) lies 16 kilometers from Bariloche, between the Cerro Catedral and Cerro Goye. As the name implies (Beautiful View in English), the scenery from its summit is absolutely amazing.
The climb to Cerro Bella Vista is quite demanding. It is therefore mandatory that all participants have a good fitness level. Some previous alpine climbing experience is also necessary. Besides that, keep in mind that two-thirds of the route consists in dense forest. After that, we must walk on sandy and rocky high mountain terrain.
As for the itinerary of this one-day hiking tour, our trail begins at the Jakob Hut, also known as El Tambo. It is a mountain lodge at 1000 meters of altitude. Here, we will start an easy climb towards the crest of the Cerro Bella Vista. That trekking route crosses an ancient forest of Coihues and Cypresses trees. We'll soon arrive at an incredible panoramic point that give us the first views of the Nahuel Huapi Lake.
So we'll continue ascending and leaving the evergreen forest behind. Now it is replaced by the famous Lengas trees. As the way goes ahead the trees become bushes. At that altitude the height allows us to admire the Moreno Lake. Now we're entering in a high Andean terrain, where we can appreciate the real vastness of the Andes and its lakes.
After crossing the edge of the Cerro Bella Vista, which is about 40 minutes hiking by rocky terrain, we'll finally reach the summit. After having lunch, resting and taking pictures up there, we must descend following the same trail.
If you are in search of a less demanding trek, check out my half-day hike in the Challhuaco Valley. It is perfect for beginner climbers or people who are not accustomed to difficult climbs.
So please contact me for more information or if you want to make your reservation for next season! I will be waiting for your message.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
