Argentina El Chalten town

El Chaltén is one of the most iconic granite monoliths in the world. Protruding from the fantastic Los Glaciares National Park, it is particularly impressive at dawn when it glows in the morning sun. In this national park, you can also admire the legendary peaks of Fitzroy and Cerro Torre, whilst a hike along the park’s many trails will take you through floral meadows, woodlands, clear lakes, secluded beaches and glaciers.
