Description

Cerro Bella Vista is one of the most commonly climbed peaks along the Bariloche skyline. Situated in the middle, it provides great views of the ski resort and surrounding mountains, hence the name Bella Vista. It is almost a perfect VK course, albeit on very dusty and root-y terrain. Starting at the trailhead for Refugio Jakob, the route begins with a short flatter run up to the trail junction, where you will turn right at the sign. From there, the route maintains a pretty steep grade the entire way. Upon topping out at treeline, there is some loose gravel that requires a bit of effort.

The Ohio to Erie Trail is a scenic 326-mile trail that traverses the state of Ohio from Cincinnati to Cleveland and connects the Ohio River to Lake Erie, primarily on rail trails and canal paths. It passes through four major cities in Cincinnati, Columbus, Akron, and Cleveland. The trail also passes through many quaint small towns and miles of the Ohio countryside. Trail construction began in 1991 primarily integrating former rail trails and multi-use trails into a one large dedicated trail system.
