Camp. Bahía de Hornos

Camp. Bahía de Hornos is a primitive campsite situated on the Península El Ventisquero along the shores of Lago Viedma, within the Huemul Circuit trekking route near El Chaltén.

It serves primarily as overflow camping when the more popular Campamento Bahía de los Tempanos is crowded, lying roughly three kilometers further along the trail.

The site offers an idyllic lakeside setting with views of floating icebergs and the surrounding Patagonian landscape. There are no formal amenities — no outhouses or picnic tables — and water from nearby streams should be treated, as cattle graze the area.

The exposed terrain is typical of the windswept pampa bordering Lago Viedma, though the grassy surroundings remain in good condition. Hikers completing the circuit often use this camp as a final overnight stop before returning to El Chaltén.
