Campanario 4049m
One of the highest peaks in Patagonia. Campanario was unclimbed for many years due to the horrible unstable "mud" and boulders of the summit tower. The first ascent was only made in 2021!
The area around the peak and the neighbouring Laguna del Maule is a great ski-mountaineering destination in the Chilean springtime.
