Overview

If you want to live a different Kayak experience, we invite you to discover the Río de las Vueltas. This activity offers the opportunity to connect with nature from the water, away from crowded trails. Explore the views of Mount Fitz Roy, the Rio de las Vueltas valley and the Andean forest from a completely unique and different perspective.
Once equipped with the technical clothing (neoprene suit, boots, vest, helmet and paddle), a vehicle will take us 21 km along the RP 41 to the Laguna Condor viewpoint where we will lower the kayaks and after the safety talk they will give the guides, we will begin the descent through the Río de las Vueltas. During the journey we will spot native fauna while contemplating the scenic beauty of Fitz Roy and its satellite spiers. Once we arrive at Estancia Bonanza we will change so we can finish the experience eating a delicious lunch with a view of the Fitz Roy.

Activity itinerary

The experience begins at the Comarka Rafting & Kayak operational base located at Av. San Martin 872, El Chalten, where the guides will receive the passengers and provide them with the equipment (technical and safety) and a talk about its use. Once the equipment has been delivered and the group has changed, they travel 21 km along RP 41 on the way to Lago del Desierto. Once we arrive at the starting point of the activity (Mirador Laguna Condor), the group will get out of the vehicle to finish putting on their clothing (jacket, vest and helmet) and after the technical and safety talk they will start the activity from the right bank of Laguna Condor. This section of the river is characterized by being shallow and meandering. We will travel about 12km, which will take one hour and ½ to two hours (depending on the river flow and wind conditions) until we reach our disembarkation point, Estancia Bonanza. Once there, the group can get dressed and then enjoy a delicious lunch at Estancia Bonanza. After lunch, the transfer will take you back to El Chalten at approximately 3:00 p.m.
