Itinerary

Day 1: Puerto Natales - Torres del Paine

Pass By: Puerto Natales, Natales, Magallanes y la Antártica Chilena Region, Chile

Day 2: Hike to Mirador Base Torres (Vantage point base)

In the afternoon we continue our trek to the Chilean Shelter, where we will pass through the lenga beech forest before arriving at La Morrena. Here, we are going to commence with the hardest stretch of the second day: a rocky path uphill to the Mirador base Torres. The fantastic view from the top, however, will be more than enough to compensate us for the difficult climb.
