Get up close to the iconic jagged peaks, majestic glaciers, and pristine lakes of these two breathtakingly scenic national parks. Stay at comfortable centrally located hotels in the towns of Puerto Natales, El Calafate, and El Chalten as well as highly-sought-after small wilderness lodgings that allow spectacular hiking opportunities that others aren’t able to reach without the need to camp. This much-loved trip of a lifetime is the ultimate way to explore Patagonia!

Highlights:

  • Trek the iconic “W” route in Chile’s Torres del Paine National Park
  • Take in spectacular vistas of Cerro Torre and Fitz Roy in Argentina’s Los Glaciares National Park
  • Be awestruck by sweeping views of the Perito Moreno Glacier with its 2,100-foot high wall of calving ice

Important Trip Details:
Long hikes with support of porters in Torres del Paine and day hiking in El Chaltén. You will be hiking between 5 to 10 hours a day, mostly on steep and rocky terrain. The back-to-back days and challenging terrain can be taxing. Strong winds are common and weather can change drastically, causing temperatures to fluctuate rapidly. These conditions can affect both body and morale.

Minimum Age: 16

Day 1 A favorite stop on South American and Antarctic cruises, Punta Arenas lies within the spectacular system of fjords that dot the coast of Chile. La Cruz Hill affords commanding views of the Straits of Magellan. Visit Punta Arenas for fascinating museums, quaint restaurants filled with fresh Chilean eats, and ample opportunity to watch local penguins!
Day 2 This is a wild and beautiful area unlike anywhere else in the world. Torres del Paine lies between the central spine of the Andes, nearly buried under a massive ice cap and the steppes of Southern Patagonia. The mountains that comprise Paine Massif are not high for the Andes, but they are precipitous. What makes individual mountains so dramatic is that from most places in the park entire peaks can be seen-from base to summit-and they appear to leap into the clouds from the floor of the valley. With its 450,000 acres, Torres del Paine truly is a world-class park because of its completeness, having every feature one could hope for in a temperate zone park. It has, like all truly great parks, that indefinable element in its character to which visitors respond.
