A TO Z OF PLACES YOU’D RATHER BE

E IS FOR EL CHALTEN

Yes, we’re taking you to South America! El Chalten is the trekking capital of Argentina and it’s not hard to see why the place is a magnet for travellers. While the town is used mainly as a base camp, it’s what it’s base camp to that’s the impressive part.

Now we’re not talking a “cocktails by the pool” type holiday here, so if you’re after a relaxing spa-resort trip, this isn’t for you. Right now, we’re talking to the adventurer’s among you – those who get lost in the idea of packing a backpack, hitting the road less travelled and seeing where you end up.
