Laguna Torre

Reviewed By watergirls2 - Cardiff-by-the-Sea, United States

Beautiful scenery, the hike was relatively easy to moderate. Recommend this hike if you are in El Chaltan for a few days. Mount Fitz Roy hike was our favorite! As others have said, the weather is unpredictable and you may start out with sunny weather and by the time you get to the Laguna Torre or other destinations it can be clouded over. We were lucky with abnormally warm weather and mostly clear good weather; however, if you can plan to spend some time at Laguna Torre or Fitz Roy since the weather changes so quickly you will likely be rewarded with clear views at some point during the day!

Parque Nacional Perito Moreno

Las aguas turquesas del fascinante conjunto de lagos que ocupan buena parte del Parque Nacional Perito Moreno son el espejo en el que se reflejan, entre otros, el bosque de lenga. Allí, el Cerro San Lorenzo, es la segunda cima más alta de la Patagonia e ícono de la Cordillera. Conocido como el “Everest argentino” es un gran desafío para los amantes de la montaña. El Parque permanece abierto desde el 1º de octubre al 30 de abril. La entrada es gratuita y es obligatorio, por seguridad, registrarse al ingresar.

Lago Argentino

Located in Glacier National Park, this 15,000-year-old lake is the largest in Argentina.

The colors were stunning and it truly is a wonderful lake next to the airport as you fly in! You can also take short or long boat trips out to see the various glaciers,

Laguna Capri

Reviewed By P4117SZstevel - Los Altos, United States

The lake was not hard to get to and was not crowded at all. If you got here by following the trek on the left at Punto de Encuntro, then follow the trek passing the lake and do the loop back up to the Fitz Roy view point (see the map attached in the photo) and then to town if you don't want to hike all the way to Laguna de Los Tres. The view of Fitz Roy along the trek just pass the lake was even more spectacular.

Lago del Desierto

Reviewed By adcdiving - Antwerp, Belgium

Unfortunately, the trip with the larger boat is already fully booked and we don't feel like waiting more than an hour here for the next boat. Fortunately, there is another smaller boat moored at Lago Del Desierto that wants to sail with us and another couple for an hour on the lake for 800 Argentinean Peso per person. Almost a private cruise and definitely recommended because this skipper goes just a little further than the commercial cruise and also gives more time to take the necessary photos of the glaciers and the pointed top of Mount Fitz Roy that shines in the sun.
