Itinerary description

Saliendo desde Puente Ñilhue a la cumbre. Se recomienda salir muy temprano en esta época por fuerte exposición del cerro a la radiación (la vegetación en su mayoría es de media altura). Llevar mucha agua (solo existe un canal a 1/3 del camino aprox.).
Muy buena experiencia para conocer flora y fauna local, la cumbre otorga excelentes vistas hacia Farellones, colorado y sector de San Carlos.
Como punto intermedio se puede visitar el sector de Alto El Naranjo, no menos importante coronado por un gran y robusto Canelo, cuya sombra se agradece enormemente.

    Started at 9.10am from park entrance. Uphill all the way to the summit. Trail is clearly marked and the park guards register you in and out. 6 hours up including lots of stops and 3.5 hours down (as fast as we could). Fantastic views all day, especially at the top. Saw a Condor. Recommend hiking poles and good boots with grip. Take clothes for every climate, gets cold at the top. Take 3 litres of water each as none enroute.
