“When we let our stories exist with honesty, we find ourselves in each other’s histories—together we find consensus, we find solidarity, we find healing.”
AmyAnn Cadwell
Cerro Capilla. The mountain of our grandparents. A true Slovenian peak in a crowded Argentinian town.
Cerro Capilla lies on the shore of the Nahuel Huapi Lake, between Brazo Tristeza and Bless streams. Its perfect location gives the mountain a stunning scenery since it is surrounded by crystal waters and no high peaks.

The views and its wild environment stands out as a highlight of the area. In fact, to get to the mountain it’s necessary to take a boat or kayak. We took my friend’s boat from Bahia Lopez and in 20 minutes, we were on the trail.
The ascent to Cerro Capilla is a gem for Bariloche mountaineering! Once on top, we were about 2167 meters high! The views from there are amazing. We admired Cerro Tronador and Puntiagudo volcano as well as the entire Nahuel Huapi Lake. Some condors came to say hi too!
