White Lake National Park derives its name from its most famous inhabitant: the black-necked swan. When the swans float on the lake, the white feathers on their bodies make the lake appear to those seeing it from afar as if it was covered in snow. Birding is the most popular activity here, as 100 species of ducks, coots, geese, and flamingos call the park home. Located only a few miles from the city of Zapala in the Neuquén province, the park also features the Salamanca Cave with rock paintings, the endangered Patagonia frog, and multiple hiking trails.
