1-day Tronador summit from Refugio Meiling

This 1-day Tronador summit from Refugio Meiling will take on an amazing adventure to the Argentinian summit of an iconic north Patagonia's mountain.

Mount Tronador (3491 m) is actually geologically active volcano, although it hasn't erupted for a very long time. It's located in the the Cordillera de los Andes, and it's one of the high peaks that sets the border between Argentina and Chile. It's name comes from the noise -similar to a thunder- that the ice falling from its glaciers does when it falls.

I've design this program to meet with you in the Otto Meiling mountain hut, which is the las hut in the way to the summit from the Argentinian side. So you'll have get there from Pampa Linda by yourself, but this is not a difficult hike and I can give you some tips to get there fast.

We'll meet there the day before the ascent and we'll go to bed very early to start walking at 4 or 5 in the morning. This way we'll reach the summit at noon after hiking and climbing across an incredible glacier with steep ridges. On the top you'll have time to take pictures and enjoy the breathtaking surroundings and then we'll go down the same route to get to the mountain hut at 3 pm approx.

So please send me a request and let me know your desires so I can arrange this 1-day Tronador summit from Refugio Meiling for you!
