→Section 2-3: Alternative Long Distance Challange via Las Truchas
If you are near the finish of section 2 but and your backpack is still filled with plenty of food and you are ready for the ultimate endurance challenge than you can leave the regular trail in the lower part of the valley Rodriguez and climb up the steep valley Las Tragedias: “the tragedies”. This optional trail section bypasses the settlement Pichi Rincon and the road to San Fabian via the scenic lake Las Truchas and the pristine river valley with the same name. Don't miss to take a dip in the refreshing water of the the lake or the Río Las Truchas or one of the contributary side streams! You will re-joins the regular trail in the small settlement El Roble without the possibility to resupply until the end of section 3 at the Laguna Las Lajas. There are few trail where you can walk such a long distance through a nearly untouched wilderness. If you combine secion 2 and 3 with this alternative trail you will walk for 2 to 3 weeks without passing a village or a public road.
