Downhill Mountain Bike Adventure

Let a chairlift do the hard work for you and then fly down Mt Huyliche on this guided mountain bike tour from El Calafate. Starting from the Calafate Balcony steppes, your 8-mile (13-km) descent lasts three hours with stops for nourishing snacks and explanations of what you see along the way. When you’re not pedaling off to remote corners of Laguna Escondida, snap pics of Argentino Lake, the Andes mountains and aerial views of El Calafate.

Mountain biking experience is not required, but you should know your way around a bike.
