Laguna Torre day hike in El Chaltén (Patagonia, Argentina)

The hike to Laguna Torre is a classic and a must-do on your trip to Patagonia. Come with me and I’ll show you the way.

Although we’ll be hiking for around seven hours and cover 10 km on this trip, you won’t really notice because the surrounding landscape is so captivating.

We’ll start by hiking through the Bosque Andino Patagónico, a kind of forest native to this area. This is really enjoyable and the hike is not difficult at all. As we hike further the landscape will change and we’ll start to see how glaciers have carved out the rock over time.

Along the way, I will point out different things in nature and share my knowledge about the area and the ecosystem. If you have any questions I will be happy to answer them.

After a little while, we’ll arrive at the glacier lake that lies in front of Cerro Torre. We’ll take some time here to appreciate the spectacular natural beauty of the lake and mountains. You’ll be able to get as many photos as you want before we continue hiking back to El Chaltén.

This is an unbeatable day out of hiking. Request to book now and get one step closer to these beautiful lakes and mountains.

While you’re in Patagonia, you should check out as many hikes as possible. Take a look at my day hike to the Laguna de Los Tres which to get inspired!
