Parque Regional Bardas Norte

The park extends across 300 hectares of protected land, featuring geological formations called bardas and slopes that characterize the Monte de Llanuras ecosystem.

The area preserves archaeological remnants of Indigenous settlements, documenting the long-standing human presence in the Neuquén region through different periods.

The designation as National Capital of Urban Hiking highlights the integration of natural spaces into the city's recreational infrastructure through 16,420 meters of trails.

Visitors can access the park through two main entrances: Avenue Argentina and Riavitz at Plaza de las Banderas or Jesus Maria and Mandalari streets near the Astronomical Observatory.

The park includes three aerobic trails of varying lengths, with the longest extending 2,740 meters, and an interpretive lookout circuit spanning 350 meters.
