Full-day excursion that visits Chaltén and starts from El Calafate. It includes stops and leisurely walks to the viewpoints, lunch in a restaurant, always accompanied by a guide. It is an activity to explore El Chaltén in a relaxed way and without physical demands.
We begin this full-day tour picking passengers up from their hotels: Once everyone is on board the bus, we will begin the trip to the town of El Chaltén, considered the National Capital of trekking. On our way, we will cross the Santa Cruz River and stop for a few minutes at La Leona (a site of great historical interest) next to the river that bears the same name. There we will make a stop to use the toilets and you can enjoy homemade cakes and something hot to drink (not included).
Then, we will continue on our way to El Chaltén. During the tour, weather permitting, we will stop at the Viedma Glacier Viewpoint, where we will have amazing panoramic views of the Viedma Glacier Valley, the iconic Fitz Roy Hill and Torre Hill.
Once in Chaltén, we will take 2 fully guided hikes. First, we will head to the Condor Viewpoint. From this point, you can enjoy stunning panoramic views of El Chaltén, the Las Vueltas River and the majestic Fitz Roy and Torre hills. After descending, we will head to the Rancho Grande Restaurant to enjoy a delicious lunch.
After lunch, our next destination will be El Chorrillo del Salto, located 4 km from the town. This waterfall, approximately 20 m high, falls into a pool of crystal-clear water that creates a fascinating natural setting. Finally, we will return to El Chalten to spend the last 30 minutes exploring the town and then begin the return trip to El Calafate.
