Descripción del Tour:

The tour commences from the hotel at 8:00 am, with a brief journey to Tierra Mayor Valley, arriving at 08:30 am to embark on a vigorous hike.
The initial segment of the hike features a steep trail, where the ancient lengas of the sub-Antarctic forest accompany the trekker. After 45 to 60 minutes (09:30 am) of challenging trekking, the forest is left behind, and from the summit, breathtaking views unfold.
At approximately 10:15 am, we reach the Turquoise Lagoon, which dazzles with its stunning color, characteristic of glacial-origin lagoons. We proceed to ascend a rocky ridge, reaching the summit of Mount Carbajal around noon. From this vantage point, you can observe the paths carved by glaciers, which during past glaciations flowed towards the Beagle Channel, traversing the Tierra Mayor and Carbajal valleys, shaping this remarkable landscape. We will enjoy our lunch while taking in the view, and at 1 pm, we will begin our return to the vehicle at the base.
By approximately 3:30 pm, you will be returned to your hotels.
