Best Time To Visit Bariloche

Bariloche is a year round destination but the experience varies greatly depending on what time of year you visit. During the summer, which is from November until February, the weather is warm and there are many water based activities available. The Autumn (March – May) is a beautiful time to visit to see the colours in the trees. It’s not too hot either. The winter (June until September) brings snow and it is possible to ski here. The spring months of October and November are also a great time to go when the trees are in blossom.
