Description

From the ranger station of Parque de los Glaciares, there is one trail that leaves out the back. After a couple hundred meters, there is a well-marked trail out to your left. Follow the trail to the summit. The trail is quite short, but the views will be well worth your while! The spectacular rock features, mind boggling glacial lakes, and braided streams that make this region famous can all be admired at a distance from your vantage point on this trail.

Flora & Fauna

Condor can be seen riding the thermals. You pass through a Southern Beech forest.
