Another fantastic trek is to access a 360° viewpoint, via a less used trail in the national park. From here we can appreciate the valleys of Cerro Fitz Roy and Torre, the Patagonian steppe and the vast Lake Viedma. An unforgettable Patagonian postcard view!
Your guide will meet you at your accommodation, and together you’ll head to the trail leading to Laguna Toro. During the first hour of ascent, you’ll witness a landscape that gradually transforms, opening up to a wide, expansive area where you’ll be greeted by panoramic views of the towering Fitz Roy, Torre, and Huemul peaks.
The hike continues through forests and wetlands, eventually reaching a point where the environment changes dramatically. The lush vegetation gives way to the sparse, arid terrain characteristic of high mountain landscapes, with rocky paths leading to the final stretch of the ascent.
Your efforts will be rewarded as you arrive at a spectacular viewpoint offering a 360° panorama of the majestic valleys and surrounding mountains.
After a well-deserved rest to soak in the grandeur of the scenery and capture a few photographs, you’ll begin the journey back to the village, retracing your steps along the same trail.
