Full day in El Chaltén with trekking to Laguna de los Tres

About this experience

The most spectacular and unforgettable trekking in southern Patagonia.
The visit to Laguna de los Tres is a classic of El Chaltén and one of the most beautiful viewpoints for the panoramic views of Fitz Roy. Although it is one of the longest trails, it is worth it.
The activity will start with the pick up from the hotels at 06:00 AM. Then you will take the mythical Route 40 bordering the Lago Argentino and start your trip to the town of El Chaltén.
You can make the Fitz Roy Trail for 8 hours, covering a total of 20 km to reach 1,200 meters high. You will pass through different sceneries, some more wooded, others more austere and with water mirrors until you reach Laguna de los Tres.
During the winter season, the main landscape is snow. We provide you with crampons and poles so you can walk safely.
The first 4 kilometers will be to warm up, with an incredible view of the Rio de las Vueltas Valley.
-Activity of high difficulty, only suitable for people between 16 and 50 years old.
