    Our journey continues as we tackle a 400-meter ascent over about an hour, arriving at the spectacular Laguna de los Tres. The path here is rocky and steep, but every step is worth it. At the top, you’ll be greeted by awe-inspiring views of Fitz Roy, the glacier de los Tres, and the lagoon itself—it's a sight that truly puts everything into perspective. After soaking in the grandeur, we’ll circle around Laguna de los Tres and head to the viewpoint of Laguna Sucia and its glacier. Enjoy a well-deserved break with a bite to eat as you take in the surrounding beauty.
  • Laguna de los Tres
    The descent will lead us back to El Chaltén, taking us through diverse landscapes and alongside crystal-clear streams. Don’t miss Laguna Capri—a photographer's paradise! As we drop into the valley, you’ll reflect on a day filled with stunning sights and unforgettable memories. Join us for this incredible trek and discover the magic of Patagonia!
