Learn more about El Chalten

Towering granite spires of Mount Fitz Roy loom over this hiker's paradise, where trails lead to jaw-dropping viewpoints like Laguna de los Tres. Los Glaciares National Park surrounds the town with pristine wilderness that feels almost untouched. After conquering the trails, rest weary legs at local breweries serving craft beers alongside hearty Argentine asado. Kayak the mirror-like waters of Lago del Desierto or take an easier walk to Salto El Chorrillo Waterfall. The Capilla de los Escaladores (Climbers' Chapel) pays tribute to those who've tackled these formidable peaks. For a perfect introduction, hike to Laguna Capri – the turquoise waters frame Fitz Roy in a way that explains why photographers wake at ungodly hours to capture it.
