Río Negro is a province in northern Patagonian Argentina. Marked by glacial lakes and forest-covered plateaus, its natural landscape spans snow-capped Andes mountains to the west and the Atlantic Ocean to the east. The lakeside city of Bariloche, set in the Andean foothills in Nahuel Huapi National Park, is known for its pebbly beaches, locally made chocolate and nearby Cerro Catedral ski area.
Chubut is a province in Patagonian Argentina, set on vast plains between the Andes Mountains and the Atlantic Ocean. Its remote Valdés Peninsula is home to Southern Right whales, elephant seals and penguins. The beachside city of Puerto Madryn is a gateway for excursions to both the Valdés Peninsula and Punta Tombo, sheltering a Magellanic penguin breeding colony.
