Prepare for a trekking journey through the scenic wonders of Patagonia's Los Glaciares National Park in Argentina.
Take in the rustic charm of sprawling ranches as we start our adventure on a scenic one-hour transfer along a gravel road across the vast expanse of the Lake Argentino basin. Our objetive, the iconic Los Glaciares National Park.
Reach the southern reaches of the park, where we'll enter through the Lago Roca access point. Just steps from the ranger station, we'll begin our trek along one of the most stunning circuits in the region.
Traverse through the incredible vistas of the Perito Moreno Glacier, oone of the world's most iconic glaciers. On clear days, your ascent to the summit will reward you with a unique view of the Torres del Paine mountain range, the glistening Frías Glacier, and the majestic Mount Fitz Roy.
While the hiking trail itself is only 5 kilometers long, we classify this activity as highly demanding due to the significant elevation gain of 1000 meters. Therefore, this trekking is recommended for participants with a good level of fitness and athletic ability.

Alpine Guide
I moved to El Calafate in 2001 and very soon I started practicing mountain activities, including rock climbing, skiing, hiking and trekking. In 2007, I began to work in the mountains as an assistant guide in Perito Moreno.
I finished my trekking guide course in 2011 and then, in 2015, I completed the following course to become a Mountain Guide.
I manage Zetatrek, a guiding company offering hiking and trekking trips in El Chaltén and Los Glaciares National Park. I work together with a group of guides, so if I'm not available to guide you, one of my colleagues will do it. All the guides in the team are professionally certified, and hold the required permits to guide.

So happy with my trip. It was more than I could ever hope for. My guide was very patient and flexible with my capability to hike the difficult trails I am totally satisfied with this hike and will plan to do it again. Do you have this service for Torres Del Paine as well? Let me know.

Juan and the guide he assigned to hike with us, Rodrigo, were fantastic. Rodrigo was patient, knowledgeable, and a total blast to hike with. The hike itself was one of the toughest but most unforgettable experiences of our lives. Would absolutely recommend.
