Bariloche, centre of The Lake District of Argentina, 10th January

A small group of us hired mountain bikes and went for a ride through the Llao Llao national park just along the shoreline of the lake from the campsite. It was a wonderful sunny day and the views were great all day long.

 A small bay on the lake.

 Bahia Lopez, and the building is a well regarded restaurant renowned for its sea food where we shared a number of fish dishes for lunch.

A view of the lake from the grounds of the restaurant.

 The ride was hilly and hard work in laces but the views were stunning and after a long ride up, there is always a downhill stretch.

 And another hill and another great view over the lake.

And finally the target of the ride which was the Patagonia Brewery perched on a hill side over looking the lake. It was a very modern brewery and more of a brewpub with excellent food choices and a sunny beer garden.
