Amazing 4 days! Food and hospitality at the Refugio’s was incredible. Routes clearly marked. All in all great experience. Be sure to check all your documents before going as we had some mistakes in ours but it was an easy fix ahead of time.

They put you for two nights in a camp ground in the middle (Frances). But from there to the gray glacier and back to the boat is not doable in one day. So the intenerary is not correct, that was a big disappointment.
