Programs of
Helsingfors Lodge
Program: 3 days / 2 nights.

Day 1 – El Calafate / HELSINGFORS
Beginning of a wonderful trip from the hotels in El Calafate, towards the Helsingfors Lodge; the tour starts in a truly Patagonian landscape, going northbound along the Route 40 until arriving in La Leona, a typical route post from the region. From there, we take the detour to the Provincial Route 21 until we get to the Helsingfors Lodge, located at the end of the road and at the beginning of the Andean Cordillera; an exclusive destination in a privileged location.
Dinner and lodging in the Helsingfors Lodge.

Day 2 – HELSINGFORS
You will be able to realize different activities during your stay. Some of them are detailed below.

Laguna del Morro: Roundtrip Trekking: Roundtrip trekking: 8 hours / Roundtrip navigation: 3 hours / Combination: 6 hours.
After navigating through an inlet of Lake Viedma – which goes into the Cordillera de Los Andes –, we access the Laguna del Morro, a mirror of crystalline water where the emerald green of the surrounding woods reflect in. It is the perfect scenery for peace and tranquility, and an ideal place to enjoy the fishing of trout.

Navigation and trekking to the Viedma Glacier: Duration: 4 to 5 hours.
After a 40-minute navigation from the pier of the lodge, we arrive in front of the Viedma Glacier, tongue of ice that descends from the Continental Ices. From the Zodiac we can watch the plunging of the ice blocks that give origin to the icebergs. We will set foot on land and reach the ice after a few minutes walking, and will be able to live a unique experience entering the caves that form at the sheer edge of the glacier.

Trekking or horse ride to the Laguna Azul: Horse ride duration: 4 hours – Trekking duration: 5 hours.
On foot or on horseback, we leave behind Lake Viedma and the imposing Fitz Roy, to go into the Andean-Patagonian forest. After a steep uphill climb, we discover a landscape framed by snowcapped mountains and a frozen river that blends with waters of the Laguna Azul. This activity allows us the pleasure of watching the local fauna.

Horse ride or trekking to the Estancia Los Hermanos: Horse ride duration: 3 hours – Trekking duration: 4 hours.
Setting off from the lodge eastbound we cross the Alfredo River, and then we climb a mountain cliff to enjoy a spectacular view of Lake Viedma. After approximately 45 minutes we reach the Estancia Los Hermanos, where we can visit the shearing shed, the market garden supplying the Helsingfors Lodge, and know a true Patagonian estancia in operation. On the way to Los Hermanos we see sheep, cattle and amazing horses, many of them the offspring of the quarter mile stallion kept at the estancia.
Dinner and lodging in the Helsingfors Lodge.

Día 3 – HELSINGFORS / El Calafate
Morning off at the estancia; then lunch, check out and transfer to El Calafate.
