Experience required: Minimum fitness. No trekking experience required.
Season: October to April.

These are the shortest walks from El Chaltén. One takes you to a viewpoint on the top of a small hill, Cóndores, overlooking the town of El Chaltén. This viewpoint lends itself to spectacular.

We leave the centre of El Chaltén by crossing over the bridge of the Fitz Roy River, at the town entrance, and then continuing along to the National Park offices. From here we pick up the trailhead and walk up the path to the viewpoint.

Los Condores Viewpoint: After a gentle climb of some forty minutes we arrive at a viewpoint which is strategically located for the possibility of spotting condors on their frequent flight between the valleys of the Vueltas River and the Fitz Roy River. This viewpoint is recommended for those who love photography; from here you can take impressive shots of sunrise.

It is the ideal spot for people who arrive at midday, want a short walk to understand the geography of the area.

Las Águilas viewpoint, this is not far away, with just 30 minutes between one and the other, a gentle stroll along the path to admire the vast space of the Patagonian steppe and immensity of Lake Viedma.

This walk coincides perfectly with a quick look in the National Park Visitors’ Centre.
