El Bolson and the hike up Cerro Lopez
El Bolson
,
Argentina
On our free day some of my friends and I decided to venture to El Bolson, a town introduced to me as a hippie town. Apparently this gorgous place, smack dab in the middle of two mountain ranges, and surrounded with gorgeous hiking trails, is a region free of radioactive pollution and an Ecological Municipality.
The two hour bus ride through winding mountain roads was well worth it. Although it was pretty foggy and rainy, the mountains were beautiful.
Once there we made it to the El Bolson brewery.
They have a great beer selection.
The raspberry and the honey beer were my favorites.
We then walked back to town in the rain, and went on a short hike.
El Bolson- part of the town, part of the farms.

The next day, our last day in Bariloche, we hiked 7km up Cerro Lopez. The trail was steep, rocky, and slippery, and I have a bruise to prove it.
Can you see the tiny pink house at the top of a mountain in the middle of the picture? That is where we were headed. This was taken about an hour into the hike.
