Scenic TREK to LAGUNA TORRE in El Chalten | This is the TREKKING CAPITAL of Patagonia, Argentina! ??

In today's video, we're tackling the Laguna Torre trail in the trekking capital of Argentina! This is an 18-kilometre loop that leads to a lagoon with views of Cerro Torre, and it's one of the better-known treks in El Chalten, though not quite as hard as the one we trekked the previous day to Laguna de Los Tres. A few points of interest for anyone trekking to Laguna Torre include the Margarita Waterfall (Km 0.7), the Torre Lookout (2.5), the trail towards Madre e Hija (Km 5), the De Agostini campground for anyone staying overnight (Km 8), and finally Laguna Torre (Km 9).

This is a medium-difficulty trail with the majority of the elevation gain at the start of the trek, but then things really flatten out around Km 3.5-4, so it's easy to gain a lot of ground. A few of the things we enjoyed about this trail was the fact that we had a hanging glacier on the horizon, which was really motivating, plus we got to hike through forests, along rivers, and past lagoons. It was a fun day of trekking in Patagonia and we'd highly recommend the Laguna Torre trek if you're visiting El Chalten.
