Description
Torres del Paine National Park is pristine and remote – one of the most stunning wilderness areas in the world. The ‘Paine O Circuit’ highlights the best features of the park, while including the famous W-Trek. The Paine O Circuit circumnavigates the whole mountain massif. The dramatic granite towers and spires will draw you in, and in you shall go! The Paine O Circuit takes you along the shores of stunning glacial lakes encompassing electric blue icebergs. You will experience sheer rock spires as tall as the sky and the magnificent, southern Patagonian ice cap, as well as glaciers, turquoise lakes, wonderful refugios (backcountry huts) and more!
The beauty of this raw and dramatic landscape will help you understand why the park is designated a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve. You have the opportunity to walk on prehistoric glaciers AND kayak around icebergs in a glacial lake. Wildland Trekking is an active partner of the Torres del Paine Legacy Fund, which helps educate local children, is creating a local recycling program, conducts W-trail restoration and much more.

ITINERARY
Day 1
On this Patagonia hiking tour, we will pick you up at the airport in Puerto Natales, Chile. Depending on what time you arrive, you’ll have time to rest, explore the town, or enjoy the views of the fjord before we meet for our orientation where we will review our itinerary, issue gear, and get to know one another. We will then head into town for our first delicious Patagonian meal and toast – salud! – to the adventure that lies ahead!
Important Note: When you enter Chile, you will be issued a document called a PDI (tourism card). Please do NOT throw this away. You will need it to exit the country and nearly every lodge we stay in also asks for a copy.

We will begin today’s challenging hike by trekking up the Ascencio Valley while having views of the Ascencio river. We will come to Refugio Chileno and break for water and snacks. We’ll continue through a beautiful forest of native Lenga (Beech) trees and then keep hiking until we reach a glacial moraine (a ridge made from earth pushed by the glacier). From the moraine, we trek about one more hour until we reach the most amazing view of the Torres del Paine rock towers! The views of the granite towers and glacial lake are simply breathtaking. We will then head back to our refugio (mountain hut) for dinner and accommodation for the night.

We then head down the pass through a thick forest, directly above the massive Grey Glacier. Along the way, we will have lunch and then begin trekking down to Grey Lake.

We’ve carved out some time this morning to allow for some down time after yesterday’s challenging and rewarding hike. After lunch, our guides will brief you on today’s route and extra gear needed. We then take a zodiac boat for 15 minutes across the lake until we reach the west side of Grey Glacier. Upon arrival at Grey Glacier, we will disembark on the land in between the Ice (Nunatak) and hike across the small island until we reach the glacier. Our glacier guides will brief the group on safety aspects and teach the group the proper techniques and correct use of our equipment. After the brief, we will begin our exploration of Grey Glacier which last approximately 3 hours. We will be able to observe crevasses, rivers, lagoons and tunnels in different tones of blue. We then return to the zodiac boat and ride back to the docking point. At the docking point, we return to our refugio for dinner.

After the kayaking exploration, we will head back to the refugio, pack up our gear, and begin our trek for the day. We will cross a high plateau overlooking Grey Lake on our way to Lake Pehoe. We’ll eventually come to our lodge and have the afternoon to relax until dinner is served.

People often witness the glaciers calving (dropping giant ice bergs) and hear this natural symphony in the granite amphitheater. We continue to get closer to the granite spires and glacial lake and on the return journey we can see the turquoise color of glacial lake Pehoe. Pehoe means ‘Hidden Lake’ in the Tehuelche language.

Refugio Accommodations
This hut-to-hut trek in Patagonia offers a mix of typical hotels in Puerto Natales and unique, rustic lodging that Torres del Paine National Park is famous for. These huts are all about the location!
There are some unique elements to the huts that are important for guests to understand:
- These backcountry huts are basic – but cozy and warm.
- They feature shared, co-ed rooms with bunkbeds, typically housing 6 hikers per room. In some refugios, the rooms may consist of a mix of Wildland guests and other hikers. Bringing earplugs and an eye mask is recommended.
- Separate men’s and women’s bathrooms and showers are down the hall.
- Single rooms are not available in the huts; single rooms are available only for the lodge nights in Puerto Natales.
- At some refugios, we will be in tents that are provided and set up by the refugios. In these cases, we will still have access to the refugios for meals, relaxation, and showers. The price of the trip remains the same. Additionally, if you would prefer a tent to a hut space, please inquire with our Adventure Consultants.
Meals: What to Expect
This Patagonia hiking tour features a combination of meals at hand selected restaurants in Puerto Natales and meals served by the huts in Torres del Paine. Some may consider the meals from the huts to be simple or repetitive given their remote setting, and others find them to be exactly what hits the spot! Our guides supplement the meals with extras at breakfast, lunches, and dinners while on the trek. The refugios often have beverages (beer, wine, soda) available for purchase.
In addition, we provide you with an assortment of trail snacks (nuts, dried fruit, chocolate, & cookies) to eat at your own discretion. Common trail snack brands and items found easily in the US are not readily available in this destination (i.e. protein bars, trail bars, beef jerky, etc.). We recommend guests that prefer these types of trail snacks to bring a few of their own choice items from home.
We can often accommodate vegan, vegetarian, kosher and non-gluten diets and make adjustments for food allergies. These and other special dietary requests may require an additional fee, and in some countries may be more difficult to accommodate than others. Please inquire with us for more information about the specific trip you’re interested in.
Gear We Provide
We provide all group gear which includes the following:
- Backpacks
- Trekking poles
- Tents
- Sleeping pads
- Synthetic-fill sleeping bags (or bring your own)

Guest Packing List
When you register for this tour you’ll receive access to a printable, downloadable trip information packet with a detailed packing list specific to this trip (click here to see it now.) All trips require a sturdy pair of hiking shoes or hiking boots, rain gear, a recommended clothing system, a headlamp or flashlight, a hydration system (water bottles and/or bladder) and other items specific to each trip.
Additionally, some guests choose to bring their own sleeping bag. We supply high quality, synthetic fill bags that are professionally laundered after every trip. Synthetic fill is non-allergenic, insulates when damp and stands up well to repeated washings, but is heavier and bulkier than down. If you’re able to bring your own down sleeping bag, there are multiple benefits. If not, we’ve got you covered!

The website can be viewed in both English and Spanish. The cost is roughly $10-$12 per person and must be purchased online, in advance.

Guides
Our approach to international travel is to combine the best of two worlds: the dialed-in details, professionalism and consistency Wildland trips are known for; and the cultural immersion and intimate regional knowledge that only locals can provide. To excel with this approach, we vet and hire the best local guides, welcome them into the Wildland family and train them to meet our standard of excellence with every aspect of a trip. But along with managing logistics and safety, your guides will teach you about the area’s history and culture, and provide a level of familiarity and intimate detail only locals can.

Wonderful Experience
Patagonia is the most beautiful place I have been, offering a diverse landscape, wildlife and challenging but very do-able hike. Our guides were natives of Chile and had the connections/knowledge to pull all the stops of making it the best WLT experience I have had in my five trips to date. This is a trip that is difficult to plan on your own and reservations are preferred to groups so highly recommend going through WLT.
Joshua G
Wonderful Trip
Had a wonderful trip with an excellent guide. Made some lifelong friends and enjoyed a challenging trip. Pro tips: yet get a sleeping bag and mattress from each refugio when you stop there - so lighten your load and don't bother brining your own; the refugio food is good but you will want some cash / cards to buy extra snacks or a pizza. Bringing some seasoning packets from home can spice up the trail lunches.

Amazing
