Torres del Paine National
Park is one of the most beautiful mountain landscapes in the
world, and UNESCO declared it a biosphere reserve in 1978.
Within its 242,242 hectares,
you will discover what makes Patagonia so unique: Vertical
granite peaks, huge glaciers, lakes of deep blue to green
hues, the Patagonian desert steppe, rivers and waterfalls—all
together and surrounding a tremendous granite massif—invite
you to explore its interior.
In its center rise three stone
spires, “The Torres del Paine,” which give the park its name.
The landscape and native Patagonia fauna are varied, inviting
a profound natural experience—whether you see it by foot,
horseback or via sailing. Apart from the king of the sky,
the condor, and 100 other species of birds, you may have the
opportunity to see mountain lions, herds of guanaco, rheas,
foxes and the mythical Andean deer.
Trekking in Torres del Paine
National Park is the dream of lovers, outdoor enthusiasts
and those seeking a special kind of adventure. It is recorded
deep within the memories of all who experience it.
If you walk the legendary
trails of Torres del Paine National Park, you can opt to take
on the complete circuit around the Paine Massif in 7 days
or the W Trek, which takes you to the primary lookout points
in 5 days.
