*'''GPT36 // 2025 Dec 3-5 // NOBO // 3 days // hiking // Bailey and Ohad'''
Challenges - fallen trees across the trail. Long road walking if you don't organize transport or can't get a hitch
Difficulty - 4/5
Attractiveness - 5/5
Note - you briefly cross into Argentina and back into Chile but there's no one here or any infrastructure
Day 1
We were given a number from El mosco, (+56 9 7751 7721) Christan, who drove us from villa O'Higgins to the end of the road. It cost 40,000 CLP per person, a bit expensive but no one really drives out here, so a hitch would've been difficult. We didn't regret paying because of our weather window.
The first day was a lot of up and down but easy to follow trail
Camp 1
We camped at camp [110.9/500] which was beautiful and protected from the wind by the lake
Day 2
We walked through the forest most of the day, heaps of fallen trees to navigate. The river valley was easy hiking. The fords were not an issue but incredibly cloudy and muddy from the rain
Camp 2
We camped at camp [79.9/876] which was a bit lumpy but we found a couple of flat spots. There's mice here.
Day 3
The hike up to pass was gradual and beautiful. There was a bit of fresh snow at the pass but not too bad. We actually overshot the pass but after assessing the topographic map we found our way
There was an incredibly bad section of fallen trees (photo shown).
If going NOBO, kilometer 58.3 km (SOBO) take the trail heading east, with a few fords heading to the puesto. The trail was nice and clear of dead fall. I'll upload a photo from ohads gps in the comments. Can't say much about the condition of RR, but we tried briefly and there were heaps of fallen trees
We were lucky to have a hitch from the start of the road into Cochrane from a local
We stayed at Hostal Ana Luz 15,000 CLP per person for two beds in one room
Ohad will upload our trip report of GPT37
