3 Days
Jan - Apr, Oct - Dec
Located in the Cerro Castillo National Reserve, Cerro Peñon is one of the major mountains around the town Villa Cerro Castillo. It has an altitude around the 1450 meters and it’s an spectacular glaciated mountain.
I propose a 3-day program in which we’ll traverse some glaciers and climb this beautiful peak where we’ll enjoy breathtaking views.
DAY 1: Meeting at Villa Cerro Castillo. From there we’ll trek to High Camp where we’ll spend the night.
DAY 2: This is the summit day. We climb to the top of Cerro Peñon. From there we appreciate the incredible landscapes. Then, we descend to Base Camp.
DAY 3: Lastly, return to Villa Cerro Castillo.
As a final point, it’s important to know that this ascent has not easy routes. So, participants must have some prior technical experience and a good physical condition.

Our Cerro Castillo trek was a highlight of our Patagonia trip. Our guide, Nacho, was a great hiking companion and very accommodating of our preferences, including what hike we wanted to do, what time we wanted to start in the morning and our pace. He also took the time to meet up with us the evening before to discuss logistics. He spoke great English and we had a truly memorable day.
