We get up early, have breakfast and are picked up in a van to start the excursion.
In the northwest of the Andes, nature shapes the rocks in a magical way. Craggy peaks, winding ravines, rocky landscapes. You breathe an Andean air with traditional craftsmanship totally different from the rest of the country.
Today we don't have to get up early, we have a quiet breakfast and at 12 o'clock we are at the International Airport of Bariloche Tte. Luis de Candelaria. Our flight stops in Buenos Aires with destination Salta.
We have problems again but this time with the airline LAN. In Buenos Aires we are 4 hours late and we have two hours left!
Today it's not early morning, after breakfast we bought takeaway food, some macaroni and tomato in a supermarket.
Bariloche
Our flight leaves at 2pm so we spend the morning doing some shopping. We eat roast in a restaurant, you can tell it is not recent and it is not as good as in other places.
Calafate
It's stopped raining and the sun is up, we're having breakfast at the inn. Our idea was to spend one day climbing up to Poincenot camp to admire the Fitz Roy and another day approaching Laguna Torre to see the Cerro Torre, so we decided to combine a route that joins these two wonders of nature.
We get up early again and spend the next two days in El Chalten, the entrance to Glacier National Park in the northern sector.
We took a van, it works like a bus but makes less stops. The driver is very nice and acts as a tour guide on the way. He stops at the viewpoints and tells us stories.
We get up early again, today we go trekking to see the Upsala Glacier.
Argentina Lake
We got up early and had breakfast at the hostel. Today is a very exciting day we go to Perito Moreno. We have hired a tour with the hostel that includes transportation to the Glacier National Park, boat to the glacier, trekking on Perito Moreno and return to Calafate.
Today we say goodbye to Tierra del Fuego and go to the Malvinas Argentinas International Airport to take a flight to Calafate. We will spend the next few days visiting Patagonia. We fly with Aerolineas Argentinas and without problems.
We got up early, today we visited the Tierra del Fuego National Park, which is about twelve kilometers away from the city.
We take a bus, they leave from the corner of Maipú and Juana Fadul in Ushuaia, from 8 in the morning. They leave you at the entrance of the Park on the RN3.
