Discover in a full day excursion Torres del Paine National Park (Chile), considered one of the eighth wonders of the world. Located in the heart of Southern Patagonia, 300 kms south of El Calafate, it is considered one of the most beautiful parks in the world for its curious and unique conformation of mountains, glaciers, lakes, waterfalls, flora and fauna. Onboard our OVERLAND 4X4 TRUCKS we will visit strategic points, from where we will undertake walks that allow us to access the panoramic viewpoints of the most important natural attractions of the Park. By default we do a walk of low technical difficulty and minimal physical demand. The walk is done in the company of our trekking guides authorized by CONAF - Chile.

The tour begins early in the morning from El Calafate -we use several support vehicles to ensure a quick start of the tour- to the international border. Chile the head vehicle finished the pick up we will head to the international border of Cancha Carrera - Cerro Castillo, taking the unpaved road called "The ShortCut" where we will arrive in at 10.30 am approximately. The guide will assist the travelers on the customs procedures. The reduced travel times are the result of the enormous benefits of using our latest generation 4x4 Overland Truck, which allows excellent performance on the asphalt (even by on top of conventional buses) and circulate on unpaved roads almost like on the asphalt.

Once we enter Chile we make a stop at the coffee place and money exchange El Ovejero. This is the first place with public restrooms and only place where travelers will be able to buy a handcraft and/or exchange money for the fee entrance of the national park.

Once in the Park, we will make various stops with and without descending the vehicle to contemplate lakes, waterfalls, and we will even be able to watch foxes and guanacos, and perhaps pumas, among other native animals. From Lago Sarmiento we will have the widest view the entire Paine Range

Laguna Amarga: with our overland trucks we will ride by the coast of the Lagoon up to an exclusive point where the Paine Towers are reflected in the turquoise waters. We will walk along the coast and take unique photos

Cascada Paine: Beautiful scenery where we will have an outdoor lunch. As this park is full of different species of native animals, it is very likely that we will have guanacos, foxes, ostriches, condors and many other species of birds. Perhaps -as it has been happening to us in recent seasons- in this or in some other sector of the park we will most likely have an unforgettable encounter with pumas -animal very difficult to see until a few years ago-.

Portería Laguna Amarga (entrance of the park): Despite having been touring the national park for about 2 hours, the entrance to the park is paid at 1 pm aprox as the administrative office is located in a central location of the park. Foreign currency (dollar and euro) is received at the park between Oct 1 and Apr 30. The bills must be in perfect condition and can receive the change in Chilean currency. We trust that on the season 20/21 the fee be payed online before the tour. In this point there are pubic restrooms.

Here we have already begun to circulate the south side of the park where the imposing Cuernos del Paine and its variety of colors dominate the landscape. We will make a stop at the highest panoramic point of the excursion where the landscape combines granite mountains, valleys, lakes and the Paine Grande Glacier.

Salto Grande Waterfall: at this point we will start the hike to the inferior mirador of the Lake Nordenskjold. During the tour we will visit the imposing Salto Grande, where Lake Nordenskjold falls onto Lake Pehoe, forming beautiful rainbows on windy and sunny days. This is the place where the force of the Patagonian wind can be perceived since for geographical reasons it is considered one of the windiest places in the world.

Pehoe Lake Mirador: In this place the most representative photos have been taken and that best reflect the beauty of Torres del Paine National Park. The landscape highlights the Horns, the French valley, the Franch glacier, Monte Paine Grande and the Lake and the Hostería Pehoe. From this point and around 4.30 pm we will start the return to the border and then continue to Calafate.
