DISCOVERING TORRES DEL PAINE

In the morning, your guide and private transfer will pick you up from your hotel in Puerto Natales to take you to Estancia Lazo. The journey along the coast and across the pampas will lead you to a magnificent location crowned with splendid views of the Paine Massif and Laguna Verde.

We will begin our hike to the Weber Bridge, in the heart of Torres del Paine National Park. Then, we will reach the Lago Toro Viewpoint, which offers an incredible 180-degree view of Lago Toro and the Serrano River, as well as the Donoso and Ferrier hills and valleys.

As we descend, our private transfer will be waiting to take us to our accommodation.

We begin the adventure by crossing a beech forest inhabited by woodpeckers until we reach the starting point of our boat trip.
The three-hour boat journey takes us to the immense face of the Grey Glacier. On our way back, you will see the “ice mushrooms” sculpted by the wind atop the towering peaks of Paine Grande.

After our boxed lunch, we will take a hike along a trail where we can enjoy incredible views of the Paine Massif and the ice tongues flowing from the Southern Patagonian Ice Field.

Today, we will take you along the Paine River, passing by Lake Pehoé until we reach Pudeto, where we will begin our first easy round-trip hike of the day. We will visit the Salto Grande Waterfall and enjoy the boardwalk in the area, which offers spectacular views of the lake as well as the Paine Grande and Cuernos mountains.

We will continue along a gentle trail, passing through an open area where the effects of the 2005 national park fire can still be seen. This trail takes us along the black sand beach of Lake Nordenskjöld before reaching the top of the Cuernos Viewpoint.

On the way back, we will enjoy a refreshing snack and a short break before our private transfer takes us to the next starting point. From there, we will ascend to another viewpoint to take in a panoramic view of the Paine Massif.

After breakfast and a private transfer, we will depart from the Lake Sarmiento ranger station toward the Laguna Amarga area.

We will walk along a beautiful wildlife observation trail, and after approximately an hour of hiking, we will reach a rock formation that shelters a series of cave paintings dating back 6,000 years.

A second transfer will take us along winding roads past Estancia Laguna Amarga, where we will likely encounter guanacos grazing against a stunning backdrop and rheas scattered across the pampas. After an incredible day of photographic safari, we will return to our accommodation.

In the morning, we will begin our journey back to Puerto Natales, traveling for about an hour to the Milodón Cave area, a site rich in geological history.

With panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes, this is a great spot to take some photos before continuing to a private area where we can observe condoreras (natural Andean condor colonies) and native lenga forests.

After exploring this magnificent natural formation, we will enjoy a delicious Patagonian lamb barbecue before visiting the Milodón Cave Natural Monument—a 200-meter-long cave where the remains of a Milodón, a giant ground sloth, and other early Patagonian animals from the Pleistocene era were discovered.

Once we’ve finished our visit, our comfortable private transfer will take us back to Puerto Natales, where our journey comes to an end.
