Unnamed Road - Cañadón Experience is a trek of medium difficulty that allows us to travel the bed of the Calafate stream, until we reach the Section of Estancia 25 de Mayo. The hills that surround us form a canyon that invites you to discover it enjoying the stream, always sheltering from the wind that the valley offers.
We leave El Calafate in 4x4 vehicles heading South. After a 3 km route, we reach the starting point of the trekking. Crossing canyons and streams, we go back on foot to the valley that will take us into unexplored landscapes of Patagonia. During the walk we will see a large number of birds, river trout and flora characteristic of the steppe.
Geological formations that contain marine fossils show us that the environments we pass through were mutating over the years. The trek ends after 7 kilometers in La Sección, 800 meters above sea level, where they wait for us with lunch or dinner, and then return to El Calafate in the 4x4 vehicle.
