THE UNTOLD
PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA
The Untold Patagonia is an exclusive retreat consisting of a main house and three adjoining cabins, located in a private bay on Lake Moreno, within the renowned Circuito Chico of San Carlos de Bariloche. Bordering the Llao Llao Nature Reserve and surrounded by native forest and pristine Patagonian landscapes, it offers privacy, exclusivity, and comfort in a setting of unparalleled beauty and tranquility.
​
Access is available from San Carlos de Bariloche International Airport via the Andean Crossing combined with ground transfer, or from Villa La Angostura by crossing Lake Nahuel Huapi and continuing by land.
In partnership with Esencia Patagonia, the lodge’s operations are aligned with the values and standards of a Certified B Corporation, promoting more mindful tourism in harmony with the principles of the circular economy.
THE PURPOSE & MEDIA GALLERY
In a setting where most offer the same accommodation options without true distinction, The Untold Patagonia emerges as a unique proposal: combining the warmth and comfort of home with the vastness of a natural reserve.
All of this is complemented by the range of transformative experiences that only Esencia Patagonia can create. For this reason, a minimum stay of three nights is required to elevate each journey into a deep connection
with both the land and oneself.
​
This approach allows us flexibility in crafting the itinerary, attuning to each guest’s pace, and making thoughtful decisions to ensure their days in Patagonia are truly memorable.
