What To Expect

For safety reasons, mountain clothing is necessary for this activity. In case you do not have the appropriate clothing you will have the option to rent.

The trailhead is only 15 minutes from the city, where the peat bog begins, and multiple wild trails that become more and more challenging appear.

After crossing a river, the path goes deeper into the Fuegian forest, where lengas and guindos accompany you as you move towards the tree line in a 600-meter elevation gain climb.

The last part of the trail takes place on high-mountain terrain with a challenging incline that finishes when we get to Tempanos lagoon. If the weather is favorable and if the group of hikers is in good condition, we will go around the lagoon to approach the Vinciguerra glacier and look at its cracks and moulins.

Afterward, we will take the same trail back to the transfer that will take you to your hotel.
