Itinerary
-
Hit the Legendary Road: We’ll kick off the day with an early pickup from your Coyhaique hotel, diving straight into the awe-inspiring Northern Carretera Austral. Get ready for an epic 211-kilometer scenic drive through pure Patagonian eye-candy!
-
Snap, Ooh, and Aah: Keep your cameras handy as we wind our way through a dramatic landscape of towering mountains, rushing rivers, and lush forests. We’ll make special stops to marvel at the sweeping Marchant Viewpoint and the cascading beauty of the Virgin Waterfall.
-
Discover Roadside Wonders: The journey is just as spectacular as the destination! Along the route, we’ll pause to admire the pristine, mirror-like waters of Las Torres Lake and the striking, unique rock sculpture known as Piedra El Gato.
-
Meet the Hanging Glacier: Arriving at Queulat National Park by midday, prepare to have your breath taken away by the park's crown jewel: a colossal hanging glacier that spills dramatically over a cliff. Despite being right in front of you, its surrounding unclimbed peaks keep it wrapped in wild, mysterious charm.
-
Lunch on the Edge of the Ice: Take a gentle, 600-meter stroll through a magical native forest right to the shores of the misty Laguna Témpano. Here, we’ll sit back, relax, and enjoy a delicious lunch (either a curated box lunch or a menu meal, depending on the provider) with the ultimate backdrop: the majestic, icy glacier right before your eyes!
