Day Hike Cerro Castillo National Park Glacial Lake
Senderos Patagonia was born from one trip: our day hike in to the Cerro Castillo National Park to the glacial lake just below its most famous summit.
This hike is a staple in our company and one of the most iconic hikes in our region, leaving you with breathtaking views of glaciers, granite peaks and the Ibáñez River valley.
Level of difficulty: Medium to hard, due to the steep rock scree and elevation gain.
Estimated time: 6-7 hours, depending on your physical ability
Price: 2 pax: $80.00 USD per person – 4 pax: $70.00 p/p – 6 pax: $60.00 p/p
