Trelew Overview
Trelew, located 70 kilometers south of Puerto Madryn, is the largest town in the Chubut Valley, and serves as a good base point for visiting the various surrounding attractions in this area. Founded in 1884 by Welsh immigrants, the town has maintained much of its European identity. One can still hear Welsh, in addition to Spanish, spoken in the streets of this cheerful, bustling town. In addition, every year in October, Trelew celebrates its Welsh roots with the Eisteddfos de Chubut, a festival of Welsh art, song, and dance.
The Egidio Feruglio Paleontologic Museum, considered to be one of the best museums in Argentina, is located in Trelew. Here, visitors can see dinosaur bones, including those of the biggest vertebrate ever to live—Argentinosaurus, as well as other prehistoric Patagonian fossils at this popular destination.
Other points of interest include the Museo de Artes Visuales, the lush Plaza Independencia, and for pinguino enthusiasts, there’s the penguin colony located 107 kilometers south of town at Punta Tombo.
