=Permits, Entry Fees and Right-of-Way Issues=
* ==Regular Route: ==No permit or entry fees apply to the regular route but a high gate was build in 2021 . Also no right-of-way issues were reported from hikers in recent years. (2019)
* If the the gat at "X, Gate {01} [11.2/787]" is locked, continue 2.1 km on the main road and take Option 2 (Filo Purgatorio). ==Option 1 (Rio Clarillo: )==Access into Reserva Nacional Rio Clarillo is controlled by CONAF at the main entrance near Pirque. The park is intended for daytime visits only and does not provide camp grounds. Cooking inside the park is strictly banned including with camping stoves. A maximum of 800 persons are permitted entry on one day. CONAF park rangers might not permit a southbound traverse and all visitors are probably required to leave the park in the evening at the main gate. The entrance fee is 11,500 CLP (2022) for foreign nationals and 2000 to 4000 CLP for Chileans. The tickets needs to be bought online in advance and there is not cell coverage at the entrance to the reserve.
A northbound traverse is probably free of charge. (2019)
