The Circo de los Altares Traverse, also known as La Vuelta al Hielo Continental, is a famous route ending in El Chaltén, Argentina. It is a technical glacier traverse often completed as a 6-8 day expedition. 

There are 2 options:  The traditional, U-shaped expedition route is a point-to-point from the highway at the Rio Eléctrico bridge and finishing at the National Park entrance at El Chalten.  For in-a-day runs, it may be more satisfying and logical to do a complete loop, which adds ~ 13km to the total distance.
