Ski tour day in Cerro Vespignani with a guide

Welcome to an amazing ski touring program in the Cerro Vespignani. 

It's an honor for me to invite you to this unforgettable ski experience. The Cerro Vespignani is 2,146 meters high and is a popular summit in the region. That is because the ascent does not involve great difficulties although good physical training is necessary. Its vertical drop once at the top is about 1500 meters long. 

The Vespignani has really high-quality snow, perfect for the practice of cross country skiing and snowboarding. In addition, from the summit, there is a breathtaking panoramic view of the Fitz Roy massif and the Continental Ice Field.

As for our itinerary, we'll start driving early in the morning from El Chaltén to the Lago Del Desierto. Once in the parking lot, we must walk for an hour to the foot of the Huemul Glacier. We'll then continue ascending to the summit. It will take around 6 or 7 hours to reach up there. After a short rest, comes the best part! Time to ski down the slopes of the Cerro Vespignani. It will take us 2 hours to get back to the base and get to the parking lot again. Finally, we will drive back to El Chaltén, reaching there by the afternoon.

This ski tour is suitable for experienced skiers. Although the ascent to the summit is not technically difficult, you'll need a good fitness level. A ski touring background is also mandatory.

I can lead a group of 4 participants maximum. The best season to come to this region is from July till October, during the winter. And if you want more ski touring adventures in the area, you can join me on this 8-day ski tour on Chile’s volcanoes.

So, I will be waiting for you. Just book your place and we'll discuss and plan the adventure together!
