Hiking is definitely the best way to explore an area, especially if it’s new to you. I would like to invite you to hike around the **Los Glaciares National Park, Argentina** with me on this incredible one-day trip to **Loma del Pliegue Tumbado**.

Our hiking adventure will begin in **El Chaltén, Santa Cruz**. We’ll then take the trail to the top of Loma del Pliegue Tumbado. This trail combines different ecosystems, such as scrublands, an Andean Patagonian forest and a high mountain environment. From the summit, we’ll get outstanding panoramic views of the whole area including the **Fitz Roy Range, Cerro Torre, Adela Range, Solo Mountain, Toro Valley, Huemul Mountain and Viedma Lake**. Finally, after a break, we’ll descend to our starting point following the same route.

The hike takes approximately 9 hours and covers 12.4 miles. We’ll ascend 1,000 meters, which is why I recommend this trip to participants with some hiking experience and in excellent physical shape. Although the trail is open year-round, the best season is from October to May.
