  • THE LAST FRONTIER (14D-13N) 5N Estancias - 2N Riverside Domes - 2N Hotels - 4N Camping Star / End Punta Arenas
    THE LAST FRONTIER (14D-13N) 5N Estancias - 2N Riverside domes - 2N Hotels - 4N Camping Star / End Punta Arenas Cowboy Up: This horseback ride through Torres del Paine and Bernardo O’Higgins National Parks in the stark southern region of Patagonia made veteran traveler Bryan Rees feel like a bona fide cowpuncher. “Drinking mate [traditional herb drink] with gauchos around a fire, cutting pieces of lamb off a spit, and learning to saddle a horse were moments that made the trip feel real and not planned.” These 11 days riding give you time to experience seven Patagonian Estancias in the surrounding areas of Torres del Paine & Bernardo O’Higgins National Park. You will enjoy the estancias' homey feeling and comfort, sharing together with local people a delicious lamb barbecue cooked in the Patagonian style. Highlights include amazing views of the famous Torres, 4 glaciers, Lake Sarmiento and the opportunity to gallop along the magnificent prairie areas called Pampas. Day 1 Transfer Punta Arena’s airport – Estancia Lago Sofia We suggest you take the early flight Santiago - Punta Arenas (4 hours), flying over Los Andes and observing incredible views of the Patagonian Ice Fields. Upon your arrival to Punta Arenas, considered the most southern city on the continent, a private transfer will be waiting to drive you to the surrounding areas of Puerto Natales. As we leave the airport we will be able to see the Straights of Magellan and the mystic Tierra del Fuego. During a 3-hour trip we will drive through open pampas and huge ranches (estancias), and chances are we will be able to observe one of the most typical animals in this area, the ñandu, (rare South American ostrich).

Duration: 8 hrs Departure: 7:00 hrs Route distance: 18 km Initial altitude: 120 masl Difficulty level: High Maximum altitude: 870 masl A deservedly famous and highly demanding excursion. After crossing the Ascensio River you will walk uphill for around 2.5 km until reaching "Paso del Viento" pass at about 480 meters above sea level (masl), with a beautiful panoramic view of the pampa, the lakes to the south and the Ascensio Valley itself. From there, you will descend to the "Refugio El Chileno" shelter. Up to that point, vegetation is that of the pre-Andean scrubland bioclimate; from then on vegetation changes completely and as you climb you will penetrate the ancient lenga tree forest until you reach the Torres Glacier moraine at 600 masl. Once out of the forest a final push of around 45 minutes of continuous uphill trekking will take you to the Base of the Towers at 870 masl, where you will behold directly in front of you: the three granite giants, the best reward to your efforts! Throughout the trek you will observe fauna such as condors, mora eagles, caranchos and other birds of prey.

INTRODUCTION: Patagonia . the name conjures up images of gauchos riding vast, windswept expanses and recalls the era of the cowboy and westward expansion in the American West. True to this vision, the sparsely populated plains and peaks of southern Chile are scattered with enormous estancias, or sheep and cattle ranches, and contain some of the Continent’s most impressive and dramatic wilderness areas. Torres del Paine National Park, one of the most spectacular destinations in the Western Hemisphere, compares favorably to world-renowned destinations like Yosemite or Glacier National Park in the USA, and should be on every hiker’s list! The highlight of this rewarding adventure is 6 exciting days of hiking beneath the park’s towering granite walls and icy peaks, considered by many to be South America’s best hiking experience. Following an overnight flight to Santiago, we connect south to Punta Arenas, one of the southernmost cities in the world.
