Day 1 - Transfer from Natales - Estancia Lazo hike to Puente Weber (Bridge)

Our journey begins in Puerto Natales, where we will drive for two hours to Estancia Lazo, a 13,000-hectare cattle ranch founded over a century ago. From here, we will hike into Torres del Paine National Park along a mostly flat trail, offering excellent opportunities to observe local wildlife.

We will reach Laguna Honda and continue toward the Lago Toro viewpoint. After a short descent to Weber Bridge, our private transfer will be waiting to take us to our riverside camp on the banks of the Serrano River. Upon arrival, we’ll be welcomed with a freshly prepared dinner and breathtaking views of the Paine Massif.

After enjoying a picnic lunch by the Pingo River, we’ll hike through a beech forest inhabited by Magellanic woodpeckers, eventually reaching the starting point of our boat journey, which lasts three hours.

We’ll take our time to enjoy lunch at the viewpoint, surrounded by towering peaks and open skies. Our return hike follows the same path back to the riverside camp.

A delicious dinner will welcome us at the dining lodge before settling in for the night in a private luxury double dome on the banks of the Serrano River.

Taking the same path back, we will enjoy a fresh snack and a brief rest before our private transfer takes us to the next starting point towards Laguna Amarga. After approximately one hour of hiking, we will arrive at a rock overhang formation where we can observe a series of rock paintings dating back 6,000 years.

We will pass through lush beech forests before climbing up a massive terminal moraine. At this viewpoint, 900 meters (2,953 feet) above sea level, we will rest, take photos, and enjoy lunch.
