About Cerro Bayo
Cerro Bayo rises above Villa La Angostura, on the northern shore of the Nahuel Huapi, and its defining feature is the view: the runs face the lake, and you ski towards water and forest the whole way down.
It is much smaller and calmer than Catedral an hour south, and the village below is one of the prettiest in Argentine Patagonia.
