An iconic route through the most emblematic huts of Bariloche\, designed e specially for women looking for adventure\, community\, and confidence in t he mountains.\nOver four days we hike through forests\, alpine lakes\, and high-mountain terrain\, sharing intense days\, unforgettable landscapes\, a nd moments of genuine connection.
