From the Argentine Patagonia World / Areas
Patagonian Steppe
The steppe spreads across much of Patagonia east of the Andes. Its open plateaus, grasslands and river valleys make sense as a landscape to cross, rather than one destination to pin on a map.
Argentine Patagonia / Your next move
Bring this chapter to life.
Keep exploring Argentine Patagonia with our travel partners.
The Andes' rain shadow helps explain the sharp change from wet mountain forest to dry open country. For a close look, use a named trail in Parque Nacional Patagonia, where coirón grassland, wetlands and rocky uplands appear in one protected setting.
What to look for
Coirón grassland gives the steppe its low, open texture.
Wetland patches interrupt the drier plateaus in Parque Nacional Patagonia.
Useful to know
Select a named trail and its actual entrance before setting out; the steppe has no single visitor access point.
