Pessoal, vocês poderiam indicar alguma agencia de seguro viagem que seja barato, pra pelo o menos despesas medicas, não tenho conhecimento disso e se puderem ajudar ficarei grato!

I’m in the final stages of planning my trip for the end of September, and I recently came across a really interesting post about some lesser-known and non-obvious things to do in El Calafate. However, I’ll be spending five days in El Chaltén, and I’d love to know if you have any recommendations for things to do or places to explore beyond the famous hiking trails

Hi, hope you guys are all doing well. I plan on visiting Argentina and spending most of my time in El Chalten. I’m torn between mid November and early December. I’m going to probably spend 4-5 full days in Chalten with the ultimate goal of Laguna De Los Tres.

November is supposed to be less people but the weather is less likely to be clear.

December is supposed to be more people but better chance of good weather.

Price from looking at all the things is mostly even. Also, online says the school holidays in Argentina and Chile start in mid December, so I’d be going before it gets super hectic.

My main priority is being able to get a great view of Fitz Roy from Laguna De Los Tres. Secondary would be to not have it be insanely packed. Any ideas for what you guys think is best?

My partner and I are visiting El Chalten in October and we'd love to do the Laguna De Los Tres hike for sunrise.

Would you recommend hiring a guide for this time of year if we are not avid hikers? We are both physically fit, but don't have a ton of experience with difficult hikes.

Will we need crampons for this time of year?

And will we be OK using a Life Straw filter with the available water sources?

Thank you!
