Buenos Aires: Urban Walking & Trail Gateways

While Buenos Aires is best known for tango and football, it’s also a city built for walking. Broad avenues, historic neighbourhoods, and coastal paths along the Río de la Plata make it an ideal place to explore on foot before heading into the mountains.

The Andes: High Trails & Endless Horizons

The Andes are where Argentina truly opens up for hikers. Stretching the length of the country, this vast mountain range offers everything from day hikes through alpine valleys to demanding multi-day treks at altitude.

Trails wind past glacial lakes, through dry high-desert landscapes, and into snow-dusted peaks that feel almost untouched. Regions like Mendoza, Salta, and the Lake District near Bariloche are renowned for well-established hiking routes, dramatic elevation changes, and sweeping views that reward every step. Whether you’re trekking deep into the mountains or hiking shorter scenic routes, the Andes deliver some of South America’s most unforgettable walking experiences.

Patagonia: Wild Paths at the Edge of the World

In the south, Patagonia defines hiking in its rawest form. Vast, windswept, and strikingly remote, this region is home to legendary trails beneath jagged peaks and beside turquoise glacial lakes.
