El Chantel is beautiful!

Even the bus driving was so long, but weather turned out great! Our tour lady was hiking with us all the way to the top hill, we had spetecular views there

Too much time spent on the road

We saw guanaco and rhea from the road but it would have been nice to stop and take pictures. I think El Chalten would be better explored by basing directly there for a couple of days.

Great views of El Chaltén!

Great excursion…be aware that it’s a 3 hour drive from El Calafate to El Chaltén. We were fortunate to have sunny weather. Enjoyed seeing the peaks from the Condor lookout and the wonderful waterfall. Glad I went. Probably would have enjoyed spending a few nights there to hike the area more. Definitely a must-see!

Unforgettable

As long as you have the legs you have to visit it, there was snow and ice that complicated the paths, but what we were able to travel is worth it, and what we did not see is the excuse to return
