OUR ACTIVITIES
Walking Trails
Self-Guided
Inside the Laguna Condor Refuge site we find several self-guided trails that take us to different panoramic points allowing us to appreciate the fauna and flora of the place. The area is also surrounded by mountains from which you have excellent views of Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre.
One of our recommended treks is the ascent to Loma del Diablo. A demanding activity that rewards us with the best views of the north face of Fitz Roy. Its summit rises by 1800m.s.n.m, giving us a great view of the entire area.
For those who require it, we have guide services to accompany our passengers to the circuit they choose (ask for additional cost)
Mountain Bike
Self-Guided
The practice of Mountain Bike is one of the recreational activities and one of the most popular means of transport among lovers of outdoor life. Laguna Cóndor Refuge has designed a program to enjoy, pedaling, the paths that cross the Patagonian Andean forest and its lakes.
A tour of Route 41, leaving from our refuge in the north direction, to the Desert Lake. The circuit goes along the Río de las Vueltas, with several stops to contemplate waterfalls, the typical vegetation of the area and its fauna (hare, huemul).
You can add guide service (ask for additional cost).

The Laguna Cóndor Refuge, is the ideal place to base as fly fishing is allowed and despite not being the best sector of the river to carry out the activity is very close to the best fishing sectors offered by Chaltén.
