Discover one of Patagonia’s hidden gems, in a region brimming with magic and wonder.
The guide will pick you up early in the morning from your accommodation, and a transfer will take you to the Río Eléctrico Bridge.
From here, a trail leads you into a charming lenga forest, where fresh air and the sounds of nature will accompany you on a two-hour walk. As you ascend, the first glimpses of the surrounding mountains begin to emerge, setting the tone for what lies ahead.
The journey continues towards the iconic Refugio Piedra del Fraile, a perfect spot for a short rest before embarking on the next 90-minute trek to Laguna and Glaciar Pollone. This hidden Patagonian treasure is a true natural marvel: the lagoon, fed by the glacier’s waters, is framed by towering rock walls in striking hues of orange, ochre, and red, evoking the image of a grand natural amphitheatre.
After soaking in the stunning scenery, capturing photographs, and enjoying a well-deserved break, you’ll retrace your steps along the same path. Upon reaching the Río Eléctrico Bridge, a private transfer will be waiting to take you back to the village.
