Itinerary and highlights
In a comfortable minibus we will begin with the pick up at hotels, at 08:00 hours approximately, to start our trip, accompanied by a bilingual guide.
Along the coast of Argentinean Lake, we will continue until the crossing with the route 40 that we will take towards the north. Approximately half way we will arrive at the La Leona Inn, an old construction dating from 1894, on the river of the same name, where we will learn about its history.
Continuing towards the north, and after several stops at panoramic points, we will surely meet with herds of guanacos and hares.
We will go to “Chorrillo del Salto”, which is 4 km away from El Chaltén, where we will enjoy the enchanting landscape and a natural waterfall of 20 meters high in the middle of the mountain range.
If preferred, passengers may choose to walk the self-guided trails to the Mirador de los Cóndores or Las Águilas. (Condors Viewpoint or Eagles Viewpoint)
Lunch will be held at a restaurant in El Chaltén. (Does not include drinks)
