Tuesday - Esquel to San Carlos Bariloche

Climbing off the windswept Patagonian plateau the tour gets up into the mountains. Scenary is alpine. The road twists and turns up the valley. "Built by a motorcyclist" according to Leo.

This is where the Argentinians come on holiday. Charming little towns with camping sites, hotels and cabañas - small, well furnished houses where you can stay self-catered. Then over the top and plunge down the other side, through sweeping turns and past wind ruffled lakes until we arrive at the holiday town of Bariloche. What a ride. Simply breathtaking.
