Begin your day with early hotel pickup from your accommodation in El Calafate. Enter the legendary Route 40, following the shores of Lake Argentino, thus beginning your journey towards the town of El Chaltén, located 220 km away from El Calafate.

Once in El Chaltén, start an exciting hike that will take you through the Andean forests. You may have the opportunity to glimpse some of the animals that inhabit this magical environment.

You will follow the famous Fitz Roy path, which begins and ends in El Chaltén. With a total distance of 4 kilometers one way and another 4 kilometers back, it will take you through a challenging route, especially between the first and second kilometers.

In less than two hours, you will reach an exquisite lagoon with crystal-clear waters, surrounded by the native forest, offering a simply spectacular panoramic view of the imposing Fitz Roy massif.
