Description

Experience the wild beauty of Patagonia on this 4-day trek

Come and enjoy this beautiful 4-day trek in the Cerro Humul region of Patagonia, guided by a local expert. Experience magnificent views of the Patagonian Icefield, glaciers, forests, and the wildness of Patagonia.

The Cerro Humul region is one of the most beautiful and remote areas of Patagonia. It is home to stunning glaciers, forests, and mountains, and is a great place to experience the wildness of Patagonia.

Your adventure begins in El Chaltén, where you will embark on a journey towards the Toro Campsite. As you leave the village behind, you will gradually enter the realm of the breathtaking Patagonian wilderness. Along the way, you'll be able to marvel at the rugged beauty of the Andes mountain range - a perfect introduction to the spectacular natural surroundings that await you.

The trek continues from the Toro Campsite to the Paso del Viento Hut, a more challenging leg of the journey with steep ascents and rugged trails. Your effort will be rewarded as you're presented with panoramic views of the titanic glaciers.

Descend from the high mountain terrain to the stunning Bahía de los Témpanos, a place where icy giants float gracefully in crystal-clear waters.

On the last day, you will bid farewell to Bahía de los Témpanos and make your way back to El Chaltén. This return journey provides a chance to reflect on your incredible Patagonian adventure and savor the sense of accomplishment and hear-pumping experiences you've gathered along the way.

About the guide

Daniel

Trekking Guide

I love nature and doing outdoor activities. I've been practicing climbing, trekking, and mountaineering for more than 17 years. I climbed and did mountaineering in California, Spain, France, Perú and Patagonia.

I'm a Range Trekking Guide since 2011 (Guía de Trekking en Cordillera EPGAMT), organizing ascents, treks, and camping trips, and above all enjoying the wonderful places that nature gives us.

I've been living in El Chaltén for more than 10 years. I fell in love with this town where I have a perfect life balance: I can work in nature, climb, go to the mountains, and share all this with other people.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

Joshua

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
