About this experience
The Cerro Tres Monjas trek is a signature Patagonian hiking experience that rewards adventurers with some of the most spectacular views in Chilean Patagonia. The trail winds through ancient lenga forests, past crystal-clear streams, and emerges above the treeline to reveal breathtaking 360-degree panoramas. From the summit, you'll see the legendary turquoise waters of the Futaleufú and Espolón rivers snaking through verdant valleys, framed by snow-capped Andean peaks. This moderate trek is suitable for hikers with basic fitness and offers an authentic connection with Patagonia's pristine wilderness.
