Cerro Castillo (Carretera Austral)

Located just 64km south of Coyhaique, Cerro Castillo is a paradise for nature and trekking lovers. Its imposing 2,675m basalt mountain rises as an icon of the Aysén region, surrounded by native forests, glaciers, and dreamy lagoons. This park is being hailed as the "next Torres del Paine" for its stunning landscapes and peaceful trails. The Cerro Castillo Circuit is a seven-day trek designed for adventurers seeking an authentic challenge. This path features established campgrounds and unforgettable views, but it has no shelters or amenities, making it ideal for those seeking to disconnect and immerse themselves in nature. For a shorter but equally remarkable experience, the hike to Laguna Cerro Castillo fits the bill. In just 6 to 8 hours, you'll climb through native vegetation-covered paths to reach this glacial lagoon, where the views are simply spectacular.
