Mount Fitz Roy (Cerro Fitz Roy)

The trek to Laguna de los Tres is one of the primary day activities in Los Glaciares National Park, providing a close-perspective view of the granite massif of Mount Fitz Roy (3,405m). The route follows an out-and-back trail through mixed forest and glaciated valleys, passing the Piedras Blancas viewpoint before the final ascent. The journey is defined by a significant transition from the low-lying valley floor to the high-alpine environment of the lagoon, which sits directly below the main peaks.

Mount Nuolja (Njullá in Sami) is the striking, 1,169m alpine peak that dominates the skyline above the Abisko Tourist Station. Serving as the dramatic gateway to Abisko National Park, it offers two distinct experiences. Hardcore hikers can tackle the steep, 11km round-trip climb from the base via the Rihdonjira nature trail, ascending alongside rushing waterfalls and dense birch forests. For those seeking the views without the strenuous climb, the open-air chairlift glides silently up to the STF Aurora Sky Station at 900m. From there, it is merely a 2km (1.2-mile), rocky, but highly accessible hike to the true summit. The peak offers explosive, uninterrupted panoramic views over the massive, mirror-like Lake Torneträsk and the iconic 'Lapporten' (The Lapponian Gate) U-shaped valley in the distance.
