he City of Cipolletti is a mandatory reference whenever the fruit trees of the Province of Río Negro are mentioned. Its apples have placed this destination into an outstanding position in the entire valley of Río Negro and Neuquén.

Thus, Cipolletti, along with other cities in the valley, contributes with part of the 700 thousand tons of apples produced by this region, which occupies the first position in the list of national fruit exporters.
In the summer months, the transparent Limay River and its bathing resort next to Carlos Pelegrini Dam invite visitors to refresh themselves and to try fishing some trout brought along by these waters from the Andes Mountain Range.

Coquettish and simple at the same time, its museums and its surroundings turn this city into a cozy place to be enjoyed at all seasons. An ideal place to tour around and to continue traveling towards the rest of Patagonia.
