In the Glaciers Province, very close to Cochrane, you will find one of the highest massifs of the Austral Patagonian Mountain Range, a still unexplored wonder of nature.
At a distance, 60 kilometers southeast of the Cochrane district, we find Mount San Lorenzo, a massif recognized for being the second highest of the Patagonian Andes. It will be one of the many locations for those outdoor and mountain climbing lovers to go to next season.
With its 3,706 meters of altitude, the massif surprises with its diverse natural charms; all observable while trekking or horseback riding, on a 6 hour journey up to a base camp taking an old cattle trail, where resting and visiting its surroundings and the lagoon that precedes the massif are part of the itinerary.

Another important tourist attraction is the possibility of coming up close to the Cayuqueo Glacier and marvel with its beauty. This place has raised its popularity in recent years due to its easy access, because it is located only 47 kilometers south of Cochrane.
