Last visit to Puerto Patriada lake this summer.
Puerto Patriada is a part of Lake Epuyén not far from where I live in El Bolsón.
No more than 20 kms separate me from this true natural wonder and it is the place where I usually spend some weekends carrying the tent and in the company of my faithful Tomy who walks and sniffs all the trails that lead to the lake and the Patagonian forest that surrounds it.
It is an ideal place to rest but also in the summer season it is very visited by people who like to dive or surf.
As it is a boxed-in lake, the waters are quite calm. Precisely tranquility is what I look for every time I come to this place.
I took advantage of these first days of March that the few tourists who have come this year have already left, generally coming from the noisy and stressful life of the big cities, the first of all with its infernal rhythm and its 20 million inhabitants is Buenos Aires, luckily more than 2,000 kms away.
Yes, I know what you are thinking, that I made a mistake with the figures. No, they are accurate. Argentina is huge, especially from north to south. The famous route runs from one end to the other from north to south from La Quica on the border with Bolivia to Cabo Virgenes on the southern border with Chile, almost 4,000 kms while from east to west are almost 1,500 kms totaling something like about six million km2, half of Europe.
The sun that filters through the branches of the forest and ends up reflected in the waters of the water is a wonderful spectacle of nature and well worth having come.
