Weather Information
History
Bariloche started out as a mountaineer's region and the great majority of its current 100,000 inhabitants are descendants of foreigners. Swiss, Germans, Austrians, and Italians came from Europe to settle in these beautiful surroundings and here they have stayed with their traditions and customs giving origin to most of the regional products that characterize Bariloche.
On a different note, Eric Priebke, an infomous Nazi, was discovered by the BBC of London in 1994 in Bariloche. Since then, Bariloche, and other parts of South America have been thought, rather deservingly, to be hideaways for many political refugees.
