Introdution
You can enter this quiet valley from different departing points to be agreed upon in a previous talk with the Guide, who will advise and inform you about the most convenient.

From the valley surrounded by the Hills Inacayal (1,840 m), Belvedere (1,685 m) and Filo Belvedere (1,685 m) you can make walking trips in the surroundings. For example, you can arrive to the beginning of Arroyo Las Piedritas, or simply camp and enjoy flora and fauna.

On your way you may see majestic condors, with their 3 metres length, flying in circles while they are using the different air streams or you may find pumas’ or foxes’ footsteps.

During your walking you will hear the sound of water coming from Arroyo Las Piedritas, that composes the Inacayal Fall and continues its way up to its end in Nahuel Huapi lake. You will cross small ‘threads’ of cristal water and might hear and see several types of bird which have their nests on the trees or are working, like the Austral woodpecker with red crest.

Walking (to go) will take you between 3 and 4 hours, depending on your rythm. Summer is the best season to do it, although autumm shows the most beautiful colours because some species like the LENGA and the beech dye their leaves red before falling

If you do this trip by horse riding, it will take you approximately 9 hours. You start climbing up the ravine which is between the Hills Belvedere and Inacayal and continue crossing zones of coigues and reed beds. Then you get higher at the LENGAS forest which becomes harsher as you arrive to the end of the climbing. Finally you arrive to Cajón Negro, a little valley of Belvedere Hill. Lunch consists of an excellent snack with a good wine. Later you visit Las Piedritas stream and come back along the slopes located over the Correntoso lake.
