the El Chalten zone, where people spend
two nights in Full Camp in Capri Lagoon,
each person will carry his/her light backpack,
only with personal equipment necessary
for those two nights. The rest of the
luggage will be stored in individual bags
in the place where lodging in El Chalten,
where we return after those two nights.
We always walk slowly with some rests,
enjoying the landscape and the environment
while walking, with time to discover the
flora and the fauna of the area. Although
it's a mount region, the average altitude
of our trekking will be 450 meters, with
a maximum possible altitude to reach of
1500 meters, which should not negatively
affect reasonably fit hikers.
