The trip was absolutely swell! Eduardo was incredibly kind and made me feel comfortable and confident in my first mountaineering trip. 

He provided me with any additional gear that I didn't have and was great at advising on best practices and checking in on how I felt periodically during our trek. 

The experience was absolutely incredible and I'm so thankful for Eduardo and his support in helping me gain this incredible achievement. The views and conditions were near perfect and we were able to see endless volcanoes, mountains and other natural wonders in every direction.

This was definitely physically demanding but I believe that anyone that is reasonably active and has a positive mindset can summit!5

I had a wonderful time on my journey to the top of the Osorno Volcano and cannot recommend Huella Andina enough. José and his team were very good at communicating with me from the moment I booked my trip. While I had been initially a little hesitant, unsure if I had enough experience for this trip, José was very clear about what to expect and assured me that my prior experience was definitely sufficient, putting my mind at ease. The trip itself was very well organized. My guide, Falco, picked me up from my hostel in Puerto Varas. I was able to stay in the Teski Refuge the night before the ascent, enjoying a delicious dinner and breakfast prior to the start. The climb became a little technical, as conditions were icy toward the top, but Falco was an excellent lead, telling me exactly what to do once we started to use the ropes. The view from the top was very special as you climb above the sea of clouds and see other volcanoes in the distance. If you are planning a trip to Osorno, I highly recommend Huella Andina Expeditions to take you all the way to the top! Can't wait to come back to Chile and do another trek with them!
