DAY 1:
PUERTO NATALES – TORRES
DEL PAINE NATIONAL PARK
Breakfast in the morning. Leave at the hotel all
not necessary gear for our trekking days. Leave in
the morning (8:30am) in our private vehicle in
direction to Torres del Paine National Park. This
take 2 hours driving north and take Laguna Amarga
entrance. Right before entering the Park, we will
have excellent view and a great picture taking
opportunities of Paine wild life such as guanacos,
grey foxes, Chilean flamencos, Condor and
black-necked swans.
Arrival at camp Las Torres. Here, we leave most of
our gear and tents. Start our hike with a day pack
through Ascencio valley by the footpath into Lenga
trees towards Torres del Paine lookout, one of the
most spectacular views of the Park (4 hours). From
here we can view the three granite pinnacles
towering above a green, cirque-bound lake in a
deep, narrow valley. The scene is one of the
intense past glaciations. Return to Torres camp
(Tent). Is possible to find open refuge during
winter time, in this case we will overnight here.
Snack and dinner.
Note: During all our expedition
it is including the breakfast, one trail food
during the long walks and dinner.
