A note about our nice Patagonian wheather
Success will always depend, in great measure, on the climatic factors and the conditions of the terrain. The weather in this area is very unstable and unpredictable; you must be prepared for “wild” weather conditions and accept that we will do our best to achieve our goals.
For some of our programs, we take one extra day to improve the chances of a successful trip.
Our Mountain Guides will have the final call to modify partially or totally the programs..

STEP BY STEP DETAILS


note: participants must come to Mountaineering Patagonia the day previous to the trekking in order to complete the health information form. Meeting with your mountain guide at 8:30 AM. The trail starts by going along Laguna Toro trail. After one hour’s walk we will arrive to our first lookout point, with astounding views to Mounts Fitz Roy, Torre and Huemul. From there we continue crossing the “Pampa de las Carretas”, an old pioneer’s trail, where we will find our trails’ detour to Pliegue Tumbado hill. Once we cross the timberline, it´s probable to find snow. From the lookout point, the view of all surrounding mountains, glaciers and valleys is breathtaking. After having some rest, we will start heading back to El Chaltén by the same trail. We estimate to be back in town again by around 5:00 PM.
