Unmissable places on Route 40: Faulkner Lake.
I continue with the review on the Route of the Seven Lakes that wonderful place that is understood by Argentine Patagonia.
Today I am going to talk to you about Falkner Lake. One of the most beautiful that make up the so-called Route of the Seven Lakes, protected from the wind -unlike Lake Correntoso- which I told you about in the previous post, and with huge sandy beaches ideal for relaxing.
It is located just 50 kms from San Martín de los Andes. And they can access it through Route 40 as I did or simply by reaching San Martín los Andes and from there take the lake route.Sigo con la reseña sobre la Ruta de los Siete Lagos ese lugar maravilloso que se entiende por la patagonia argentina.
It has an area dedicated as a picnic spot. And you can also buy sweets and homemade bread from the locals.
Its name is in honor of the memory of Tomás Falkner, an 18th century Jesuit missionary priest of English origin, who, although he never visited the region where the lake of that name is located, after carrying out an important task of evangelizing the Indians in the south of the current province of Buenos Aires, collected important geographical data about it which he captured in his well-known work "Description of Patagonia and the contiguous parts of South America."
So far I have told you about three lakes that make up this true natural route. So I'm halfway there.
They are:
The Mirror Lake.
The Beautiful Lake.
The Rushing Lake.
Falkner Lake, halfway between San Martín and La Angostura, presents the ideal mix: transparent water, fishing, kayaks, canoes and snorkeling and for this reason it is the most chosen by families to take a few days of vacation.
On its western shore there is a campsite and a small inn, the only places in the area that are equipped to accommodate tourists.
It is one of the "seven lakes" that give its name to the tourist circuit of the same name, the most well-known tourist circuit in the province of Neuquén.
