There are a variety of views from the steppe to the forest. So then, from huge glacier moraines to colorful lakes. Also, the views from Agachonas pass and del Vientopass; make this program a unique and fantastic way to explore the best of this National Park.
Following then, from the imposing and stunning views of the Mt. Fitzroy to the beautifully clear views of the laguna Torre; and the thrill of the zipline through to the exhilarating Paso del Viento. After all; this is a trek adventure with different experiences along the way; and thus, it’s an awesome way to experience the north Patagonian wilds of El Chaltén.

We had an amazing time in Peru! We booked the 18 days backpacker special tour across South Peru, and the whole trip, from accommodation to transport, was incredibly well organised. Every location we visited was beautiful, had great food, and the tour guides were all very friendly and informative. The Ausangate trek was also well planned, and the horsemen and cook made a huge difference. James and Edwin would also check in with us on a regular basis and keep us updated on the itinerary.
Definitely an incredible once in a lifetime experience!

I've just finished the winter W trek booked through unuraymi. Booking and communicating with James was straightforward and simple.The whole hiking experience was so wonderful- lead by the best guide, Andres and porter, Victor. They were instrumental to the trip being a truly special once in a lifetime experience. From knowing all the best spots and suggestions to give us the best hiking journey, to cooking delicious meals and making sure we were well fed and looked after at all times, Andres went above and beyond in order to give us a special experience. Couldn't have asked for a better, more memorable trip. Highly highly recommend this tour and especially Andres. :)

I had the best time doing the W Trek tour with Andres our guide and our porter Victor. The tour was incredibly well organised with Andres customising the itinerary taking into account the weather to ensure we got to see the view points at their absolute best. Andres’a cooking was also amazing considering we were out camping and only had the ingredients we were carrying. The tour is incredible and I can highly recommend.

We had the most amazing time completing the W-trek with our guide Andres. Since we were in off season the refugios were closed and we slept in tents. Most of the time we were the only ones there which made it a really special experience. Andres did amazing and he made sure everything was well arranged which was a bit more of a challenge since we were in off season. Most importantly we felt really save and in good hands with Andres! Also the contact with James was effortless and with very quick respons! We would definitely recommend!

I had a fantastic eight day trek in the Torres del Paine national park. James through his contacts in Chilean Patagonia was able to get me on the coveted "O" Trek with only a months notice (other trekkers at the campsites had booked in August or earlier). I keep describing the Trek to friends and family as hard but incredible!
The local guides and porters were all friendly and made the experience quite incredible. The trip was the reset that I needed at the end of 2022 and am thankful to Unu Raymi Expeditions for making it happen!

James at Uni Raymi sorted out a fantastic hike for my husband and I in Argentinian Patagonia. I don't think our guides Faco and Mika work in Peru, but I would certainly recommend them - they were very attentive to us and gave us a tailored experience that was challenging but not too much - and at the end of the day made us delicious food. They were also incredibly knowledgeable - we learnt a lot about the Patagonian landscape, animals and plants... Plus we felt like they were hosting and looking after us, not just guiding. It was a fantastic experience that we will never forget.

We did a 3-day trip with Unu Raymi that involved trekking through the Lares Valley and a day tour at Machu Picchu. We had an amazing time! The planning & communication with Unu Raymi was very organized, our local guides were exceptional, and we felt well taken care of the entire time. Would highly recommend!

My 18 day adventure around Southern Peru with Unu Raymi was fantastic - James and the Unu Raymi team were incredibly professional, organised and helpful.
From the start of the process, James helped me curate a flexible tailor-made tour at a very reasonable and competitive price. During my visit to Peru, James was highly communicative, friendly and went to extra mile on numerous occasions and provided an exceptional service.
Overall, my tour with Unu Raymi was a stress-free once-in-a-lifetime experience and a perfect way to see one of the most beautiful countries. You won’t regret booking with Unu Raymi!

I definitely can recommend Unu Raymi as your trip to Peru agency. Although they are not just an agency - they do a lot more. All the way during our Peru journey with Unu Raymi we feel confidence and care. We made Ausangate trekking, Sacred valley and Nazca lines with them. Everything they do is well planed. Moreover, during our trip heavy rains destroyed a part of rail road to Machu Picchu making it impossible for us to visit as planned, and Unu Raymi took the effort to replan the trip - making sure we visit it.

El Chaltén - Laguna los Tres
You'll leave early in the morning to the starting point of the trek located 20 kms away from town in our private vehicle to Hosteria El Pilar. Once arrived, we start to walk on the trail to Poincenot camp thru a forest of “Lengas”, typical Patagonic tree, having the Blanco River on our right. Here, we may leave our gear before continuing through Lenga (Southern Beech) forest and ascend to the Laguna de los Tres. At this lagoon we enjoy the closest, and best, views of the massif before returning to camp.
Distance: 15 km +650
Duration: 7 hrs
Physical Intensity: medium – high
Accommodation: Organized camp with sleeping gear, all meals, snacks and wine if desired (B, L, D)

Laguna Torre & Cerro Torre
After breakfast we begin our descent into the Valley of the Madre and Hija lagoons, with permanent views of Fitz-Roy. This trail leads us to the next valley: that of Cerro Torre. Always surrounded by Lenga forest, we take a short hike to our campsite where we leave our overnight gear before continuing on to the Maestri lookout. It was from here that the legendary climber planned his climb of Cerro Torre in the 50's. From here we return to camp to rest.
Distance: 10 km
Trekking time: 7 hrs
Physical Intensity: Medium
Accommodation: Organized camp with sleeping gear, all meals, snacks and wine if desired (B, L, D)

River Túnel Valley
After breakfast and packing our clothes we walk to Torre Lake and cross the River Fitz-Roy on the zip line. Once across, our trail takes us through the forest, then along a rocky stretch and finally leads us to one of the best views in the valley: the Agachonas Pass. From this point we begin to descend towards the River Túnel Valley, with amazing views of the glacier bearing the same name and its neighbor, Mt. Solo. Once in the vast glacial valley we head westwards towards our next campsite at Laguna Toro.
Distance: 11 km +900
Duration: 8/9 hours
Physical Intensity: High
Accommodation: Wild camp and all meals (B, L, D)

Paso de Viento
Early in the morning, we prepare for another intense day, which begins with a second impressive river crossing, this time across the River Túnel. After it, we begin our gradual ascent across glacial moraine until reaching the Viento Pass – privileged viewing point of the Southern Ice Field and the main body of the Viedma Glacier. From here we return along the same path till reaching our campsite at Laguna Toro.
Distance: 13 km +700/-700
Duration: 9 hours
Physical Intensity: High
Accommodation: wild camping and all meals (B, L, D)

Pliegue Tumbado Hill & Viedma Lake
This day takes us along one of the Park’s less walked trails. The first part keeps us in the Túnel River Valley after which we gently climb towards the Pliegue Tumbado Hill. Along this route, returning towards El Chaltén, we will have the best views of the Viedma Lake, and each clearing in the forest will reward us with photo opportunities of mounts Fitz-Roy and Cerro Torre. Once back in El Chaltén the program ends.
