Cerro Torre, 3,102 m high, in Los Glaciaires National Park, technically more difficult to climb

The Fitz Roy takes the lead but according to specialists, the Cerro Torre (3,102 m) is technically much more difficult to climb. Known for his invincibility, he was finally defeated by his west side in 1974 by Italy's Casimiro Ferrari. The 800 metres of its granite peak, the harsh weather conditions and an approach walk strewn with pitfalls have long given Cerro Torre the status of the most difficult mountain to climb in the world. Werner Herzog's film Cerro Torre, le cri de la roche (1991) shows how difficult this is.

Bien moins fréquenté que le proche et célèbre Fitz Roy, le Cerro Torre est accessible depuis El Chalten en une balade à la journée. Les paysages sont tout aussi beaux. Une partie de la randonnée se fait à l'abri dans la fôret, mais les derniers kilomètres sur la crête et au bord du lac sont exposés au vent. Il faut prévoir les vêtements en conséquence.

Cette randonnée en direction du Cerro Torre permet aussi de voir le Fitz Roy.
Par chance, le soleil nous a accompagnés tout au long de cette deuxième sortie.
Le glacier se jettant dans le Lago Torre est magnifique. Une belle approche si vous comptez vous rendre ensuite au Périto Moreno.
Prévoyez des vêtements car au pied du lac, le vent souffle très fort et il est glacial !!!
