Get to know the National Capital of Trekking privately with your partner or family and be amazed by this mountain town. Be amazed by the incredible landscapes and, if you wish, take part of its beautiful trails.
We will start early in the morning with the pick up for your accommodation in El Calafate. Next, we will start a trip to the town of El Chaltén (National Capital of Trekking) 220 km from El Calafate. On our tour, we will cross the Santa Cruz River, and if you wish, we can stop at Estancia La Leona, next to the river with the same name. There they can use the bathrooms and enjoy homemade cakes and something hot to drink (not included). Then we will continue on our way to El Chaltén, bordering Lake Viedma with its homonymous glacier. During the tour, if the weather permits, we will have impressive views of the Chaltén Hills (also known as Fitz Roy) and Torre, as well as the Viedma Glacier, and its impressive icebergs.
When we arrive in Chaltén, we will have different options to enjoy this small mountain town:
- Enabled all year round and the ideal option for those who do not want a long walk. Visit the Mirador de los Cóndores about 700 meters, with low demand, and Chorrillo del Salto about 300 meters completely flat.
- From September to April (subject to weather conditions and presence of ice and snow) do part of the trail to Fitz Roy Laguna de los Tres, reaching Laguna Capri, where you can have lunch on its beaches and return by a path that does not have detours (8 km round trip). Ideal for those who can walk them, being a unique and unrepeatable experience in the city. You can also choose to do the full trail to La Laguna de Los Tres (19 km round trip), where, if the weather permits, you can be amazed by the imposing Cerro Chaltén.
Once the day is over, and having traveled and enjoyed this beautiful mountain town, we will return to El Calafate.
