Argentina Laguna La Hoya on the way to Top of Cerro Lopez Bariloche

If you walk up the path from Refugio Lopez to the summit, you will pass this beautiful little lagoon. Surrounded by rock formations and still with small patches of snow when I visited. I had the right incidence of light and this dreamlike landscape was reflected in the water of the lagoon.

If it fits in terms of the contrasts and there are reflections, you should photograph them. The best way to do this is to get a little closer to the surface of the water.

I did a trekking tour to Refugio Lopez and the summit of Cerro Lopez. You can get there with the bus line 10 that goes to Colonia Suiza.

The climb to Refugio Lopez is steep and sweaty but still easy to do. The ascent to the summit of Cerro Lopez involves a lot of climbing. However, you can leave your rucksack at the Refugio Lopez. The Refugio Lopez serves very good food and it was not necessary to book in advance.
