THE AREA

To know the extreme south of Patagonia is to see planet Earth as it was around 10.000 years ago, over the end of the last glacial era, as if time had stood still.

La Patagonia Andina Austral is still today, a virgin and little explored land. Of imposing beauty, it offers a series of natural settings that are unique in the world, such as the  the Patagonian ice and some of the most stunning granite mountain range of Patagonia: mt Fitz Roy (3441 m), mt Torre (3128 m), Paine mt (3050 m) and Moreno, Viedma and Upsala glaciers among others. The region is populated with lakes, rivers, mountains, native forests and glaciers.
