Early in the morning, jump on a local bus to Cerro Castillo in Chile (approximately 5 hours). Here, stop and get yourself some lunch while waiting for the connecting van to Torres del Paine National Park (approximately 1.5 hours). Sitting at the end of the earth is the awe-inspiring Chilean Patagonia. Few people have the opportunity to see this area and those who do find it difficult to forget. Once a sheep estancia (type of ranch), the park was established in 1959. This is magnificent trekking country where nandues, condors and pink flamingos abound. Upon arriving in the Torres del Paine National Park, you will most likely be greeted by a herd of guanacos \u2013 relatives of alpacas. These strange animals provide great photo opportunities but don't get too close; they're likely to spit at you. There's also some of the world's best trout and salmon fishing. The real star of the show is the surrounding landscape. With sparkling lakes, gushing waterfalls, glaciers and striking mountains, much of the time trekking is spent slack-jawed in awe of our surrounds. The most popular trek in this area is locally known as Base Las Torres (The Tower's Base), your leader will recommend when to take this hike, depending on weather conditions. Another available hike is towards Refugio Los Cuernos (The Horns' Lodge). This trek is long, but it has excellent views of this particular section of the park also known as Los Cuernos del Paine (The Horns). You may also have time to take a quick visit to Salto Grande \u2013 the park\u2019s biggest waterfall. The treks are classed as moderate to difficult, and venture along clearly marked trails. You\u2019ll usually hike between 5\u20138 hours per day. Climate in Patagonia is an important factor to consider \u2013 be prepared for cold, wet and windy weather.","sort":6,"tour_id":133,"ref_parts_id":"7","extra":{"meals":{"dinnersIncluded":"3","lunchesIncluded":"2","breakfastsIncluded":"3"},"accommodationList":{"description":"Camping [with basic facilities]","numberOfNights":"3"},"includedActivityList":{"description":"Torres del Paine - 3 nights camping and hiking with experienced local guide"},"optionalActivityList":[]}},{"id":1536,"created_at":"2020-10-10T17:29:23.000000Z","updated_at":"2022-05-25T20:01:28.000000Z","title":"Day 10: Puerto Natales","image_url":null,"description":"You will be taken on a full-day guided tour around another part of Torres del Paine National Park including a visit to Grey Lake before transferring to Puerto Natales (approximately 3 hours) where you will spend the night.
