Are 3 nights enough to see Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre?
Yes, if the weather plays along: one day for each lake, and the last day is left to head back calmly.
When do I get back to El Calafate on the last day?
You choose: there are transfers early in the morning, mid-morning, at midday and in the afternoon, and they take about 3 hours. We send you the times so you can plan your flights.
Does it work as a trip from El Calafate?
Yes, that is what it is for: we pick you up in El Calafate and bring you back there.
Can the order of the days change?
Yes. We arrange it around the forecast: if a day looks very windy, we move the big hike to the best day.
What if I travel alone?
The packages are made for hiking in a group, with at least 2 people. If you travel alone you can still sign up: if someone joins on those days, you hike with the group. If nobody joins, we tell you beforehand and make it private, with a guide just for you, paying the difference on the hikes.
Are the hikes in a group?
Yes, in small groups of up to 8 with a mountain guide. If you would rather have a guide just for you, we can do that too.
How fit do I need to be?
Able to walk 6 to 8 hours in a day, with climbs. No mountain experience needed. If in doubt, write to us and we will look at it.
Which hotel will I stay at?
A hotel of the package’s category, in town, with breakfast. We confirm which one when you book, depending on availability for your dates.
How do I pay?
A deposit to confirm and the rest before the trip, in dollars or pesos. We send you the details on WhatsApp.
