To hike Cerro Torre you have to be a very experienced mountaineer! I would not recommend anybody to consider hiking that if you have not done extreme climbing in high altitude before!
Jakob, Thank you for drawing attention to the absurdity of “hiking” up Cerro Torre, a peak that wasn’t climbed until 1974 by expert Italian mountaineers. Even the first pitch of the Compressor Route is hard, and that’s all that many experienced climbers end up doing, I enjoyed the other 9 recommendations since they are sane, but this one shouldn’t be in this video. To this day, Cerro Torre is considered one of the most dangerous and technically difficult mountains that also experiences some of the worst and most unpredictable weather in the world. I mean just look at it! I say this as someone who has climbed for over 45 years.
You can hike to the Torre Lagoon at the foot of the mountain and the glacier. You can even continue to the Maestri viewpoint. With no equipment other than water and an occasional meal. It is about 8 hours of trekking. But you definitely can't reach the peak of Cerro Torre without thorough planning and months of high mountain climbing training.
@@beforeyougotravel Clearly! Then why do you call it a hike or a tromp in the video???? Really misleading and negligent to recommend something for those who have no idea.

@@beforeyougotravelBasically this. With that logic they should still be angry with the Spanish for the conquistas and they would be as well against the Moors. Holding your spite is USELESS. And makes you look pathetic.
Por cierto. Sabes que no tiene Chilemierda? CATARATAS! Son una p(u)ta línea de tierra y un desierto la mayoría. Basura de país encima su capital es una burbuja de SMOG y humo, la nuestra está limpia y tenemos poquísima contaminación.

Yes it is. This is for the more advanced mountaineer.

Wish them city slickers didn't make me throw my trekking poles away. No I need to pull money out of my ass for a set of them again.
