Excursion overview

The Quincho de Cerro Frias, in Estancia Alice, 23 km from El Calafate, is the meeting point to join the group of participants of this experience.

An initial technical talk, instructions on how to develop and after delivering the equipment (harnesses and helmets), we leave for the boarding platform, located 540 meters on the south slope of CERRO FRIAS. This route is done in four-wheel drive vehicles.

A thorough check of all the equipment and the participants are ready to fulfill their goal: To cross the almost 2,500 meters of cable, arranged in 5 routes. **During the tour you will be able to appreciate incredible panoramic views of the TORRES DEL PAINE, VALLE DEL CENTINELA, LAGO ROCA and BRAZO SUR del LAGO ARGENTINO.

Once the activity is finished, you will arrive at the disembarkation platform, from where the walk back to the barbecue area begins.
