TRIP DETAILS

The “Enchanted Valley” is located 60 km east of Bariloche, Argentina and truly fulfills its name. In this 40 minute drive there is a drastic change from the Andes range to the Patagonian Steppe. This is one of the most scenic spots in the Steppe for rock climbing. The volcanic rock has unique formations with pockets, “tufas”, and horns. A quick approach with our mountain guide and a light rack leaves you with plenty of energy to climb as many of these sport routes as you desire.

For this rock climbing trip, we strongly recommend hiring a Professional IFMGA UIAGM or AAGM Mountain Guide.

INTINERARY

Drive early in the am and climb full day, takes long to drive there , so we come back around 6- 7  pm normally

Setting and routes are amazing there, good pockets and crimps

Bring lunch and water,
