Best time to visit Argentina from the UK

Argentina's seasons are reversed from the UK. Argentine summer (December to March) is hot and ideal for Buenos Aires, Iguazú Falls, and the northern wine regions at 25°C to 32°C. Patagonia's best trekking season is November to March when trails are accessible. Argentine autumn (April to May) brings beautiful foliage to Patagonia and the Andes. Winter (June to August) is ski season in Bariloche and Las Leñas. Buenos Aires is pleasant year-round.
