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.

This magnificent 5.3-mile (8.5km) section of the South West Coast Path links two of North Cornwall's most dramatic locations: the mythical ruins of Tintagel Castle (legendary birthplace of King Arthur) and the historic, fjord-like harbor of Boscastle. The route is defined by the raw power of the Atlantic Ocean crashing against towering slate cliffs, deep rocky coves, and sweeping headlands. Along the way, you pass the stunning Rocky Valley—where a river has carved a spectacular gorge through the slate—and sweeping views out to Lundy Island. The constant, steep descents and ascents out of the coastal valleys (known as "coombes") make this short distance surprisingly strenuous.
