After getting to the Peninsula del Viento, the most adventurous hikers can choose to step on this challenging trail. After 4 hours on paths with irregular soil, we finally get to the Lagunas del Aserradero or del Morro. This is a truly magical place full of beautiful colors and contrasts. Well worth the trip, the lagoon shimmers with delight to trekkers. The experience in reaching such a pristine, natural pool is often breathtaking. This is what makes trekking Patagonia so spectacular. Two small lagoons seem to be almost green due to the reflection of the trees in the water. Looking at the horizon, you can see the Brazo Moyano with its intense sky blue. There are lots of trout in the lagoons, which were introduced in 1988. To go back to the Helsingfors Lodge, we take the same trail (4 hours), but this time we get the chance to see something totally different: the Lake Viedma, right in front of us. This is one of the finest excursions for trekking in Patagonia.

This is a fascinating, beautiful place especially if you like hiking or riding in stunning country for a day or more at a time. Managed by an outstanding young man who knows how to select staff whether gauchos or chefs. Exceptional food in a setting which was the home of successful, well-to-do landowners. Interesting architecture... Read more
Everything about my trip to Helsingfors was amazing, from the staff, service, horseback riding, beautiful surroundings, treking, and of course the food. I'm still dreaming about the roasted lamb done over the open fire for the opening lunch. The staff was professional and accommodating and very personable. It is well worth the long trek to get there. It is a trip I will never forget.
