AFAR: 9 Things to Know Before Hiking Patagonia’s Torres del Paine Iconic Treks - Chile Nativo

AFAR: 9 Things to Know Before Hiking Patagonia’s Torres del Paine Iconic Treks

Get ready to experience one of the world’s best multiday treks in Patagonia’s hiker’s paradise.

Escrito por: Kathleen Rellihan August 18th, 2022

The benefits of joining a guided trek with a company such as Chile Nativo are that not only will you leave all the logistics and planning up to the experts but you’ll also learn so much more about the flora and fauna with a local guide hiking alongside you. Plus, you’re guaranteed to have a group of fellow hikers to eat and bond with. So if you’re nervous about doing a multiday hike alone, taking a guided trek makes the most sense.

Whether you go alone or guided, book well in advance as campsites fill up fast. The most popular time to hike and visit Torres del Paine National Park is during the Patagonian summer months of December to February. I went in March and the weather was early fall-like and there were fewer crowds.

Amazing trip!
We joined the Torres Del Paine 7 day O trek tour - note that this tour is not a complete O Trek but skipping the part from Camp Frances to Las Torres, which worked in our favour as our holiday is limited and we won’t miss much.

Our guide, Debbie was knowledgeable and amicable, and very passionate about hiking.  Unfortunately I fell sick during the hike and wished to leave a day earlier than planned.  Debbie and Chile Nativo quickly rearranged transportation for us and was very helpful.  Throughout the whole process Chile Nativo was very responsive.  We had a memorable journey and I would highly recommend Chile Nativo.

Fantastic experience! We were booked with Chile Nativo via Swoop and had a wonderful experience. Our guides, Tim & Lucile, were awesome. We really enjoyed their company. They were very knowledgeable about the region (the history, animals, landscape, etc). Highly recommend.

I booked the independent, self-guided Torres Del Paine trek with Chile Nativo’s help and was so glad I did. When I looked to book on my own, everything was all reserved in Torres Del Paine and Chile Nativo was the only agency that could help me find a spot still. To still be able to go on the trip when I wanted to go, to not have to spend so much time planning all the logistics, to get a local’s recommendations on the best way to do the trek…but STILL get to do the trek on my own was amazing and worth every penny. In particular Paolina at the agency was incredibly helpful. I would recommend this agency to anyone looking to hike in Torres del Paine.

Hiking in Torres with Pepa is like walking with your smartest and wisest friend. She has an incredible depth of knowledge in everything from mycology to government, from geology to history. She is fiercely passionate about conservation and our planet and has dedicated her life to making our world a better place. Our two porters Filipe and Bastian were both incredibly strong and highly professional. Always in the know on where to set up the tent, they picked the best spot in every site we were at. Also, they were an absolute blast to hang out with after the long days hiking. I cannot recommend this particular team highly enough and if you are passionate about the environment, making the world a better place, learning everything there is to know about glaciers, mushrooms, Patagonia, the history of Chile, magma intrusions and edible berries request them by name. Thank you to all three of you for making our experience so special and I hope our paths cross again.

Our Torres Del Paine  Plus trip was fantastic! A great crew of newly-made friends, guided by Izabella “La Professora”, on a journey beyond expectations. What a great time, a balance of hiking and touring. DO NOT miss the pumas!!! I will definitely go with the Chile Nativo team again, and thanks to Nestor & Juan too!
