Pico Salamanca, Mountain summit in Chubut Province, Argentina.
The conical peak rises 576 meters above sea level, standing as a distinct natural landmark along the Patagonian coastline near Comodoro Rivadavia.
The peak received its initial name Pico Santo Tomás during the Gulf of San Jorge exploration in 1745, later changing to Pico Salamanca after a Royal Navy officer.
The mountain forms part of Pampa Salamanca region, adjacent to the Patagonia Austral Marine Coastal Park, which protects local wildlife and marine ecosystems.
Visitors can access the summit through two hiking routes from Caleta Córdova, with the complete round trip taking approximately five hours to complete.
In March 2022, authorities established a new unified trail system that merged previous paths and added improved signage for safer mountain navigation.
