For your own safety, it’s crucial to be appropriately dressed for this mountain activity. If you don’t own suitable attire, there’s the option to rent.
The starting point for this trek is conveniently located just 15 minutes away from the city. The journey begins at the edge of a peat bog, from where numerous wild trails branch off, each one increasing in difficulty.
The trail leads you across a river, further into the heart of the Fuegian forest. As you journey towards the tree line, you’ll be accompanied by lengas and guindos, progressing along a challenging 600-meter elevation climb.
The final part of the trail is on high-mountain terrain and involves a strenuous incline which ends upon reaching the Tempanos lagoon. Provided the weather is on our side and the group of hikers is in good physical shape, our trail will continue around the lagoon and up close to the Vinciguerra glacier, where we can observe its unique crevices and moulins.
Finally, we’ll retrace our steps along the same trail back towards the transfer vehicle that will return you to your hotel.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
