*'''2026-03-03 / 1 day / hiking / SOBO / OH2 and C / Isabelle & Sander'''
Just wanted to get to El Chalten. Hitchhiked the road from the expensive campsite at lago del desierto to the bridge over Rio Electrico. Weather was rainy but still found a hitch in 15 minutes. When we started hiking on oh2 we had to pay for one day 45k arp, like 30 euros, felt a bit steep since we were just walking the shortest way to El Chalten but discounts are available for multiple days. Prices seem to go up every year.
OH2 was empty and Laguna piedras blancas was cool. From camping Poicenot it was very busy, but the views are super nice.
'''GPT39 / 2026-02-08 / 1 day / Lift, Hiking, Bus / RR / SOBO / Alex and Aoife'''
39 was just a transit Stage for us to get to El Chalten as our Holiday is nearing an end.
Organised with Ricardo a lift to the Argentina/Chile Border for 30k CLP. This is something he does regularly for people.
We got our passports stamped at Chilean border, which took around 10 mins per person.
Ricardo drove us 1hr to the border then you have to walk the final 7km into the Argentine Border Checkpoint. Super easy and fast walking.
Once at the Argentina check Point it took them around 5 mins to stamp both our passports. They did not check our bags, ask questions or anything.
No ferry that day so we walked the RR around Lago Desierto, we had to do it quick as we knew there was a 6pm bus leaving the southern end.
Bus was expensive at 40,000 Argentinian Pesos but we were tired and happy to pay. We only just got a seat on the bus potentially worth booking ahead. Company was Zona Austral Turismo +5492966709153.
'''2026-Jan-14 to 2025-Jan-15 / 1.5 days / Hiking / NOBO / RR + Laguna Sucia + Option B / Kole & Emily'''
Easy trail and beautiful landscapes, though we found the attractiveness somewhat undermined by the crowds. Attractiveness - 4/5. Difficulty - 1/5.
Camp: Laguna Suica, OSM bivouac, 49.28667, -72.98471
