These summer months are the busiest, with plenty of visitors in the chocolate-box towns. With the warmest temperatures and the driest, clearest climate, this is a great time to try your hand at outdoor activities. Hike or cycle through densely forested mountains, go fishing on the sapphire-hued lakes or take in the lush scenery while horse riding. Or catch the Old Patagonian Express, a steam locomotive which slices through the mesmerising scenery of the Patagonian steppe.
