San Martin de los Andes, in the Argentinian province of Neuquen lies at the foot of the Andes mountain range by the border with Chile and is regarded as a gateway to the Lanin National Park. Perfect for anyone looking for an outdoor adventure but from a quieter base - you don't come here to party all night long. The best places to stay in San Martin de los Andes offer access to a stunning landscape and a wide range of outdoor activities all year round.
San Martin was founded in 1898 as a centre for wood logging and husbandry and was modelled much like a European style alpine village. In 1937 the Lanin National Park was established (for which San Martin is the head quarters) and much of the original industry became obsolete. This forested park contains some of the most spectacular scenery in Patagonia, with numerous sparkling blue lakes, an extinct volcano and plenty of flora and fauna.
The 1970s saw the advent of tourism. Chapelco (12 miles away) is one of South America’s top ski resorts and in spring this is a bird watching mecca - the South American Bird Fair is held here every November. In summer there is kayaking, mountain biking, trekking, horseriding and golf. San Martin is also renowned for arts and crafts and epicurean delicacies - there are lots of great restaurants showcasing both Patagonian and Argentinian cuisine.
