SAN LORENZO - TREKKING

This mountainous chain of the central Patagonia dominates one of the least explored areas in the world. Without a doubt, this offers lovers of trekking an incredible range of opportunities. Towards the west the vegetation is that of sufficient moisture, while to the east is dramatically drier in nature.
Cerro San Lorenzo is the natural frontier that distinguishes the climates. There is an abundance of fossilized forests and Paleolithic pits of the indigenous people that give testimony to the past in the forms of crafts and cave paintings. While remote valleys at the base of the peak make for spectacular trekking routes appropriate for almost everyone
