I know the flights are short but expensive.

Buenos Aires - Viedma - Bariloche


Buenos Aires - Viedma: http://www.donotto.com.ar/ $ 326

(Maybe the train goes near to Viedma ?? ttp://www.sateliteferroviario.com.ar/horarios/patagones.htm ???)

Viedma - Bariloche: http://www.trenpatagonico-sa.com.ar/ $75 (tourist class - uncomfortable consider upgrading to a better seat or bed)

$401 total one way!

I heard of someone who went Buenos Aires - Bariloche on the train for $200, it took 3 days - it may have just been a rumour....???

Good luck!
