This is an easy hike if you start at the summit of Cerro Otto, as it is pretty flat and short.

If you rode up with the gondola, you exit the complex and head South down some stairs and join the trail in the forest that takes you to the “Piedra de Habsburgo” in roughly an hour.

For those walking or riding a car up, the trail starts next to the parking lot, just South and into the forest. The lookout point has great views of Catedral peak and the Gutierrez lake.

Half way along the trail there is a gate which you must cross, though entering private land it is allowed. Along the way there are a couple of short detours right which reach great viewpoints.

From the Habsburg rock take the same trail back to Cerro Otto complex.

If you walk or ride a car up you will go past the Berghof Hut which is well worth a visit.

Important: access to the Cerro Otto Complex and the revolving restaurant requires an entrance fee although you walk or take a car up.
