Full day ski touring program in Cerro Madsen

Cerro Madsen is a perfect challenge for those who want to feel the adrenaline of reaching a summit of Patagonia and descend it through incredible ski lines.

During this ski touring day in Cerro Madsen you’ll also enjoy one of the most wonderful views in the world. Come ski with me and get a real feel of the human being’s smallness!

Regarding the itinerary of this full day ski tour, we will leave very early in the morning from El Chaltén. We can take a transfer to El Pilar or walk from the city. Once we reach the Poincenot Camp, we will cross the Rio Blanco and then begin our ascent to the Laguna de los Tres, a wonderful viewpoint of the Fitz Roy.

To our right we will have the Cerro Madsen. The snow that we will find during the ascent will depend on the season of year and the general conditions of the mountain. On the way to the top we will also find some passages where we must use our hands.

Once at the Cerro Madsen’s summit you will have one of the best panoramic views of Patagonia. We’ll ski down and and carve turns as long as our legs resist. Finally, we’ll return to El Chaltén where this program ends.

The best months for backcountry skiing at Cerro Madsen is from June to November (depending on the amount of snow). The rest of the year we can ascend it on foot, with crampons or snowshoes.
