Day 62: On to El Chaltén

Travel day. Nothing much happened today, except lots of time on buses. From Puerto Natales, I first went back to El Calafate, and then caught an evening bus to El Chaltén. I finally arrived at about 9:30 pm. I still love looking at the Patagonian landscape, so it wasn't too bad ;-)

El Chaltén is advertised as Argentina's trekking capital. I'm not sure yet if it can compete with Torres del Paine... Maybe it was a bad idea to do two hiking destinations in a row - now I'm forced to subject them to a direct comparison, and one of them is bound to loose. I guess I'll know more tomorrow when I've had a chance to do some hiking :-)
