On a clear morning the boat slips away from Puerto Petunia, the house-lined shore of Nahuel Huapi shrinking as the Andes open around the water. Wind combs the lake and the hull hums; gulls wheel over Huemul Island and Isla de las Gaviotas as the guide points to the rounded promontory of the San Pedro peninsula.
easy.
5 hours.
Minimal fitness required — able to board a small boat and remain steady on deck.
The full activity runs about five hours from hotel pickup; expect roughly three hours aboard the sailing vessel on the lake.
Yes — the tour is suitable for most ages; infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap during the trip.
Most stops are anchored bays for swimming or viewing rather than long landings; exact stops depend on weather and water conditions.
Light refreshments are included—infusions (mate) and medialunas (crescent pastries); bring extra snacks if you need more.
The lake and its islands sit within territory long used by Mapuche communities; European settlement and recreation grew in the early 20th century as access improved by road and rail.
Nahuel Huapi’s cold, glacier-fed waters are sensitive to pollution and invasive species; operators emphasize leaving no trace, avoiding shore disturbance, and minimizing single-use plastics.
