The Route of the 7 Lakes was one of the most beautiful routes I've traveled in this region. Despite having the number “seven” in the name, the route goes around up to 11 glacial lakes, which enchant anyone with their incredible natural landscapes.
The route is part of the mythical Ruta Nacional 40 and, within it, there are 108km that can be covered in a tour in just one day, by private car or even by bicycle.
PS. It is not yet the Route of the Seven Lakes.
The route starts at Villa La Angostura and ends at San Martín de los Andes.

in English: Three Monks Hill.
Cerro Tres Monjes is located on the Brazo Huemul of Lago Nahuel Huapi, between Bariloche and Villa La Angostura. The trail starts near RN40, about 20 kilometers from Dina Huapi, and climbs gradually until reaching the summit. From up above, there are panoramic views of Lago Nahuel Huapi and the surrounding mountains here in the Nahuel Huapi National Park.

Lago Espejo is a lake of glacial tectonic origin located in southern Neuquén Province, Argentina. The lake lies near the town of Villa La Angostura, on the route known as the Road of the Seven Lakes.
Its name refers to the clean and quiet waters, which reflect the landscape like a mirror. The lake is fed by numerous streams bringing snow- and ice-melt from the nearby mountains. The shore of the lake alternates between volcanic sand beaches, juncus, and rock walls.
Among the most common activities in the area are mountain biking, sport fishing, windsurfing, trekking, and BMX riding.
PS. I didn't see the mirror effect, unfortunately, as there was wind and sunlight opposite by the time I got here.
