Duration:

Difficulty:
Low

Departures:
Daily from November 1 to March 31

Floating down the Río de las Vueltas is an alternative designed so that families with children and people with different abilities can enjoy it. It is also ideal for photographers who want to venture into taking shots from the water, which will give them a completely different perspective of the environment.

Once the equipment has been delivered and the group has changed, they will travel 21 km along Highway 41 towards Lago del Desierto. Once we arrive at the activity’s starting point (Laguna Condor Viewpoint), the group will disembark to finish putting on their gear (jacket, vest, and helmet). After the technical and safety briefing, they will begin the activity from the right bank of Laguna Condor.

This section of the river is characterized by being shallow and meandering, with wonderful views of Mount Fitz Roy and Cerro Eléctrico, among others.
We will travel approximately 12 km, which will take an hour and a half to two hours (depending on river flow and wind conditions). Halfway through the tour, we’ll stop for a country brunch and then continue to the landing area, Mirador del Fitz Roy (10 km from Chalten). Once there, the transfer will take us back to El Chalten at approximately 1:30/2:00 PM.
