Day 10 - 11
Excursions from Puerto Natales
Day 10: Las Torres Lookout Today's stage is one of the most beautiful and popular hikes in the park. It takes you up to the viewpoint of the three striking towers of the Paine massif. You hike into the valley of the small Rio Ascensio, along the slope of which the trail slowly but steadily winds its way upwards. After a short break at Refugio Chileno (410 m), you continue to follow the river before plunging into the dense green of the forest. Every now and then you can catch brief glimpses of the tops of the towers. Just cross a scree field and then the breathtaking amphitheater opens up before you. At the viewpoints (870 m) directly below the granite towers, the three rock giants tower up in front of you. Together with the Laguna Torres, the result is a picturesque and unforgettable sight. Back at your accommodation, the vehicle is already waiting to take you back to Puerto Natales. Overnight stay at the hotel. (Walking time approx. 8h, 950 m↑↓, 18 km)
Day 11: Use the day for exploring and hiking from Puerto Natales. Possibly a boat trip to the Grey Glacier. In the evening, continue to Punta Arenas.
