* The path takes us through different vantage points of the impressive mountains.

* An exciting and challenging hike with outstanding views.

Description

Follow me to the heart of one of the most important valleys of Los Glaciares National Park, Argentina. On this one-day hike, we’ll follow a beautiful path to Laguna de los Tres, an incredible lagoon with views of the Fitz Roy.

Our hiking path is 10 miles from El Chaltén. We’ll drive up to El Pilar Hostería, close to the starting point, and begin our hike up the hill. Along the way, we’ll get different impressive views of the mountain chains around us. The path will take us to the stunning Laguna de los Tres, a turquoise lagoon with unbelievable views of the Fitz Roy. Then, we’ll hike back to El Chaltén through a different path that gifts us with views of the Massif of Granite.

The hike takes approximately 9 hours and covers 12.4 miles. I recommend this trip to participants with some hiking experience and in good physical shape since we’ll be ascending 700 meters and there are parts of the trail with loose rocks. Although the trail is open year-round, the best season goes from September to May.

So send your request and get ready to discover this incredible lagoon in the Argentine Patagonia.

If you are looking for more options to explore the Los Glaciares National Park, follow me for a one-day hike to Laguna Torre or Loma del Pliegue Tumbado.

Trekking Guide

AAGM-UIMLA Certified mountain guide based in Parque Nacional Los Glaciares, El Chaltén, Patagonia, Argentina.

I was born and raised in Patagonia. As a child I adopted the mountains as a way of life and now it is my honour to share my passion for this incredible landscape with all travellers who come looking for adventures.

Since 2009 I work as a guide in the surroundings of the magical town of El Chaltén. There are just too many things to do around here, from day hikes to longer trekking programs or tougher expeditions. My goal is to fulfil all of my clients´ goals and expectations in this wonderful area.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
