Schedule

07:30 am - Travel from your accommodation in Puerto Natales to the Park

Pick up at hotel, transfer to Torres del Paine National Park. We will leave your accommodation in Puerto Natales towards Villa Cerro Castillo, capital of the commune of Torres del Paine, 59 kilometers north. The journey to this point is approximately 45 minutes, ideal time to talk and interpret the diversity of landscapes with abundant presence of Magellanic forest, valleys of glacial origin, mountain ranges and lakes along the route. If the weather permits, we will be able to see the presence of condors in one of the many nesting areas along the route.

The itinerary continues towards the Sarmiento Lake viewpoint, the first photographic break with a view of the Paine Mountain Range, from here and with good weather conditions, it will be possible to have a first panoramic view of the entire mountain range of Torres del Paine, the extension to the south of the Andes Mountains and the imposing Lake Sarmiento.

After this break we will head towards a site of great relevance, being one of the most impressive views in front of the granite towers. The place described above corresponds to the Laguna Amarga viewpoint, a favorite habitat for flamingos who frequently find ideal conditions for feeding at this site. The route continues towards the main access of the Torres del Paine National Park where we will register our access tickets to continue with the itinerary

Lago Grey

At this last point we will have time to have lunch (service not included in the rate) and to walk around the surroundings if weather conditions allow it. We return to the vehicle to continue the route leaving the Torres del Paine National Park through the southern section. Our last stop in front of Torres del Paine will be at the most impressive place on the Y-290 route called Mirador Grey. From here it will be possible to observe the group of mountains that dominate the western part of the province, the immense Lake Toro and, if the weather permits, also a section of the Gray Glacier. After 1 hour of travel, we will reach the culminating point of the day, we will visit the Cueva del Milodón Natural Monument. This protected area is the second most visited after the Torres del Paine National Park in the Magallanes region. Our guide will provide all the information associated with this site of great historical relevance due to the constant archaeological and paleontological research that has been carried out there.

At the end of the visit we begin the return to Puerto Natales, ending the day with the satisfaction of having obtained a unique experience in this corner of the world.

06:30 am - Travel from your accommodation in Puerto Natales to the Park

Departure from Puerto Natales and direct transfer to the Las Torres sector where we will arrive at “Cerro Paine Reserve”, the starting point of the trail, where we will receive a prior instructive talk from our guide. Start of the walk. We take the road towards the Valley and after 10 minutes of walking, we will walk on an old suspension bridge that crosses the Ascencio River. About 150 meters ahead, a fork appears: to the left it leads to the Las Torres Base. Then follows a zigzag with a steep slope and sparse vegetation for an hour. The ascent continues and passes next to another slope and after 45 minutes we reach Camping Chileno on the opposite bank of the Ascencio River, in the shadow of a beech forest, with a moderate slope, crossing several slopes that fall from the Almirante. Grandson. After about an hour and 10 minutes from the Chilean campsite, at 700 meters above sea level, you reach the foot of the moraine that gives access to the viewpoint

From this point, the trail increases its slope. First it goes next to a slope and under the shade of the small trees located at the edge of the moraine, but further up the path is lost as such and you must continue ascending among the rocks, some of which are marked to show the route. After about half an hour from the sign at 700 meters above sea level, you reach the eastern end of the lagoon, from where you have a wonderful view of the three towers (Central, Monzino, Dagostini) and the Peineta and Nido de Cóndores hills.

Luego de descansar y almorzar en este contexto escénico extraordinario y único en el planeta, comenzamos nuestro retorno por el mismo sendero hasta llegar al punto de partida, donde estará esperando nuestro conductor para regresar al finalizar el día a Puerto Natales.
