Itinerary

Experience the thrill of becoming a mountaineer for a day with this incredible adventure in the Fuegian Andes. We begin our journey by following the classic trail to Laguna Esmeralda, a path surrounded by pristine nature that immerses us in a landscape of forests, peat bogs, and mountains.
From the lagoon, the trail becomes more challenging as we take a less-traveled side trail, which passes through areas of fallen trees and ancient beaver dams. As we leave the vegetation line and reach higher altitudes, the terrain transforms into pure mountain scenery. The effort intensifies, but each step brings us closer to more impressive landscapes.
Our guide, always attentive and equipped with safety equipment, leads us between large unstable rocks to a natural terrace with panoramic views of Laguna Esmeralda and the surrounding mountains, such as Mount Olivia and the Five Brothers. From there, the most technical part begins: the final ascent to the glacier.
Suddenly, an imposing sea of ice appears before our eyes, dominated by the majestic Rhino Towers. There, surrounded by a breathtaking landscape, we take a moment to enjoy a hot lunch and recharge our batteries before embarking on the glacier crossing, a unique and memorable experience.
At the end, we descend along the same trail, with the attention and respect that the mountain deserves, concluding a day of total connection with nature and personal growth.
