Camping in Los Antiguos
Los Antiguos, the cherry capital of Patagonia on the shores of Lago Buenos Aires, offers sheltered lakeside camping in a microclimate oasis along Ruta 40. Drive to fruit farms, cave paintings, and the Chilean border crossing to Chile Chico.
4 min de leituraAtualizado temporada 2025–2026Los Antiguos, nestled on the southern shore of the massive Lago Buenos Aires (Lago General Carrera on the Chilean side), enjoys a unique microclimate that makes it Patagonia's fruit-growing capital — cherries, strawberries, and apricots thrive here despite the latitude. For car campers traveling Ruta 40, Los Antiguos is an oasis of green after hundreds of kilometers of steppe. The town offers comfortable campgrounds with lake access, a welcome break for resupply and rest. From here, you can cross into Chile via the border at Chile Chico, visit the Monte Zeballos area for hiking, or simply enjoy the surprisingly mild weather and abundant fresh fruit. The combination of agricultural charm, massive lake views, and strategic Ruta 40 location makes Los Antiguos an essential camping stop.
