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.

Walking through the sounds. The Queen Charlotte Track (71km / 44 miles) is a premier coastal walk winding along the ridge-tops and bays of the Marlborough Sounds. Starting at Ship Cove—the historic landing site of Captain Cook—and finishing at Anakiwa, the track offers stunning aerial views of the deep blue fjords. It is unique for its combination of public conservation land and private farmland, and for the fact that you can stay in luxury lodges every night while having your luggage transported by boat.
