Chos Malal: Cerro de la Virgen
Cerro de la Virgen gives an uphill panorama over Chos Malal and its valley in northern Neuquén. Set aside time for the climb; the town itself is a broader base for the area.

Keep exploring Argentine Patagonia with our travel partners.
From the hill, the meeting of the Neuquén and Curi Leuvú river country becomes easier to read. Chos Malal was once the capital of Neuquén Territory, so the view also gives context to a settlement shaped by nineteenth-century routes and administration.
What to look for
The hill overlooks Chos Malal and the surrounding valley.
The river setting is visible from the higher ground.
Useful to know
Allow about an hour for the uphill outing, with time to descend.
Verify the Cerro de la Virgen trailhead before navigating; the town-center coordinate is not the path entrance.
