== Season==
*'''Trekking''': September to April. In September and October may
there is a considerable amount of snow that makes it difficult to walk, and
not be possible to access by car to the barrier, but this will
rewarded by an even more beautiful landscape in the summer months.
*'''Randonnée''': June to September. In the middle of winter and soon after
Snow is possible that the vehicle is forced to be fairly
away from the dam. For that reason, if there is only one day is not
good idea from a very short time after a snowfall. From
September, may be necessary to remove the skis in the brief
stretch that skirts the reservoir after the dam.

== Access by car and the road status ==

From Santiago, you should take Route G-25 at Cajon del Maipo. From the
Vizcachas crossing, 47 kilometers are paved in good condition
to the control of police of San Gabriel (phone 8611008 and
8612290, if you want to check the status of the road, although the
responses tend to be too "conservative"). Then are 1.1
miles of pavement to the confluence of the Maipo Gypsum.
Immediately after the bridge starts on gravel, on a slope
the river back Gypsum. 1.1 kilometers below (2.2 kms from
Carabineros San Gabriel) is Romeral, with some houses and
mining facilities. At this point you turn right and
continue on the path G-455. There are about 18 kilometers of gravel in
[[state of the road | regular state]] to the dam of the reservoir the Yeso
which is the maximum you can go by car. This item is a 2520
meters, so that between May and October is usually not possible
reach by car.
=== Access by public transport and hitchhiking ===
{{Template:Public transport to Cajon del Maipo}} That is, the foot
same dam.

Given that the alternative bus permits only reach Romeral (which
lies on the road to Baños Morales), from this point you should try the
hitchhiking. The road traffic is low, so it is likely that the
expected to be a weekend long, and too long on a weekday.

Once in the southeast of the dam (along the road vehicle),
it must be crossed and then continue on the road along the reservoir.
After about 900 meters, it will be possible to see that the land that we
Black Lagoon separates more gradual rise. At this point it should
turn west and start climbing. As you get higher,
be possible to appreciate the El Yeso in all its magnitude. Always
to the west, you will need up to nearly 2,800 feet before
tuck

northwest. After advancing a few minutes from the highest point,
Black Lagoon will be visible. From this point the journey becomes even
easier to follow, then simply point to the lake, in a
permanent decline. In the vicinity of the lake the decrease becomes
more pronounced. The beach, the proposed final destination, appears
first time.

===Expected Time===
From the edge of the dam, the walk should not take more than two hours
to the lagoon where the land is clear. Consider a
slightly less time back. With snow, however,
walk will take quite some. As can also be
need to start the walk from behind the dam, it is possible
taking the trek runs the entire day.

== Permissions ==

From the same dam, the land is owned by Aguas Andinas. The step is not
is permitted without permission. To obtain the access permit must be
send an email to the Operations Manager, Mr. Alejandro Romero
(aromero@aguasandinas.cl, phone: 2878813) specifying objectives,
expedition members (name, ID, occupation or business and years of
experience in mountain), head of group, date of activity and
approximate time in which transit through the land
the company. However, when the road vehicle is
cut through the snow is unlikely that such permission is necessary in
practice.
