Founded by Alberto del Castillo in 1985, Fitz Roy Expediciones was born from a deep passion for exploration and the mountains.A pioneer of El Chaltén, Alberto opened the legendary Huemul Circuit and helped create a legacy of adventure in Los Glaciares National Park.Today, we continue guiding travelers through Patagonia’s most iconic trails and remote landscapes with the same spirit that started it all.
Based on hundreds of reviews from hikers who have explored Patagonia with our local guides.
For more than four decades we’ve explored these mountains season after season. The routes below are not simply our tours—they are the trails that shaped our story.
Campamento Poincenot is the traditional base camp for hikers and climbers exploring Laguna de los Tres and the Fitz Roy Massif in Los Glaciares National Park. Surrounded by native lenga forest at the foot of Mount Fitz Roy, it offers the unique opportunity to experience Patagonia after the day hikers have returned to El Chaltén.
From here, the final ascent to Laguna de los Tres begins before sunrise, allowing us to reach one of Patagonia’s most iconic viewpoints as the first light illuminates the granite peaks. During our guided treks, Fitz Roy Expediciones provides all camping equipment while our local guides take care of the logistics and safety throughout the journey.

Beyond the trails, Patagonia is a place shaped by history, weather, wildlife and the people who have called these mountains home for generations.
In this journal, we share stories from the field, practical mountain knowledge, local insights and the landscapes that continue to inspire every expedition.
