Itinerary
07.30 hrs. - Trip from your accommodation in Puerto Natales to the Park
Hotel pick up, transfer to Torres del Paine National Park.

We will leave your accommodation in Puerto Natales heading for Villa Cerro Castillo, capital of the Torres del Payne comuna, 59 kilometres to the north. The drive to this point takes about 45 minutes, an ideal time to talk and read the diversity of landscapes, with an abundant presence of Magellanic forest, glacial valleys, mountain ranges and lakes along the roadside. If the weather allows, we may spot condors in one of the many nesting areas found along the route.

The itinerary continues towards the Lake Sarmiento viewpoint, the first photo stop with views of the Paine Massif. From here, with good weather conditions, you will be able to get a first panoramic view of the entire Torres del Paine mountain range, the southern extension of the Andes and the imposing Lake Sarmiento.

After this stop we will head to a site of great significance, one of the most striking views facing the granite towers. The place described above is the Laguna Amarga viewpoint, a favourite habitat for flamingos, which frequently find the right feeding conditions here.

The route continues towards the main entrance of Torres del Paine National Park, where we will register our entrance tickets before continuing with the itinerary.
