OVO Patagonia — Vía Ferrata
Via ferrata of OVO Patagonia capsules
A via ferrata is not an extra here: it is the obligatory passage towards a night in a transparent capsule suspended opposite the Fitz Roy, an extremely relatable and sufficiently documented combination.

Why it enters the Top 100
What makes this climb different?
Access to the four transparent capsules attached to the wall requires a guided via ferrata after a hike in the native forest. The operator locates the capsules approximately 270 m on the wall and offers either a visit or an overnight stay facing Fitz Roy. The OVO Visit programme combines transfer from El Chaltén, hiking, via ferrata access and capsule visits for half a day. A public story from March 2026 confirms the practical procedure with hiking, helmet, harness, guide, via ferrata then night in the capsule.
