Between the immensity of Mount Fitz Roy and the tranquil beauty of Laguna Los Tres, there are stunning views left and right...all these are within your grasp on this adventurous 4-day trek. Who's ready to venture through the heart of Los Glaciares National Park?
Your Argentine Patagonia adventure begins in El Calafate, the gateway to Los Glaciares National Park. After arriving at the airport or meeting point, you will enjoy lunch in El Calafate before continuing toward El Chaltén, a small mountain village set at the base of Mount Fitz Roy. The route crosses open Patagonian steppe, with wide views, isolated roads, and the waters of Lake Viedma along the way. Once in El Chaltén, check in at your hotel and enjoy time to rest before the trekking days ahead.
Meals: Lunch.
Overnight at Chaltén Suites, Standard Room, or similar, El Chaltén.
Today you will hike to Laguna Los Tres, one of the most iconic viewpoints in Los Glaciares National Park. The trail follows the Fitz Roy route, passing through native forest, viewpoints, and the Laguna Capri area before continuing toward Río Blanco and the Poincenot area. The final section is steep but rewarding, leading to the turquoise waters of Laguna Los Tres, framed by Fitz Roy’s granite spires and glaciers. After a picnic with unforgettable views, you will return to El Chaltén.
Meals: Breakfast, Box Lunch.
Overnight at Chaltén Suites, Standard Room, or similar, El Chaltén.
After breakfast, you will set out on a full-day hike along the Cerro Torre trail toward Laguna Torre. The route crosses beech forests and follows the Fitz Roy River valley, with several viewpoints along the way. As you approach the De Agostini area and the lagoon, Cerro Torre and the Adela range rise dramatically in the background. Depending on the wind and weather, icebergs may be seen floating on the water. After time to enjoy the scenery and a picnic, you will return to El Chaltén.

After breakfast, it is time to say goodbye to El Chaltén and the dramatic peaks of Argentine Patagonia.

From here, you can continue your journey independently or connect with another extension arranged by Cascada.
