A very pleasant trip. The lake is very clean and offers a great sight. The water is freexing cold. We walked further up to a view point from where we got a panaromic view of the lagoon, if you can it is totally worth climbing a bit further up to see this. Hilda is very efficient guide and has a very good knowledge and tips on hike which helped us a lot.
