What will you do?

We will start our activity with the pick-up from the hotels starting at 06:00 AM. Then we will take the mythical Route 40 bordering the Argentino Lake and we will undertake a trip to the town of El Chaltén, 220 km from El Calafate. Once in Chalten.

A stop is made at Rancho Grande (Bar and Mountain Refuge) where we use restrooms, hand out maps, explain the use of canes and crampons if necessary, and set a meeting point in the same place. We offer coffee and snack free of charge to recharge energy before starting the trek as well as on the way back to come back warm.

On the trek you will be inside part of the Andean forest. If you are lucky, you will be able to see some of the animals that live there.

Be surprised by all the landscapes that you will cross on your way... a dream place like few others.

The path that is used is the Fitz Roy, initiative in El Chaltén and ends in El Chaltén. It is 4 km to go and 4 km to return. Always in the same place. From kilometer 01 to 02 the path is demanding. Estimated time of delay 03 to 04 hours in total.
This walk takes you in less than two hours to a blue water lagoon surrounded by native forest from where you will have a fantastic view of the Fitz Roy massif.
The only fork they find is Mirador FitzRoy. We do not use that trail per IFE protocol.

After enjoying the impressive views of Cerro Fitz Roy and Laguna Capri, and filling yourself with the magic of the place, you will take a well-signposted path to return to the town of El Chaltén, we will be waiting for you at a previously arranged meeting point for the return to El Calafate.
