This is the perfect trip for trekking lovers. It is designed to get to the best hiking spots of Southern Patagonia. The first days you are going to explore El Chalten, with the impressive Mt Fitz Roy and legendary Cerro Torre. The next step will be to reach El Calafate to visit Perito Moreno Glacier, a wonderful, wolrd of ice in southernm Patagonia. Then a public bus takes you to Puerto Natales to begin, the following day, the great W Trek. After the trek is finished, back to Puerto Natales and then you can continue to Punta Arenas or back to El Calafate. To sum up, a series of the best Patagonian treks along glacial valleys and rivers, under immense, grey stone towers, over ice blue glaciers and among beautiful forests and lakes. Just a Patagonian paradise! In this case we are offering the short version of the W Trek (Express) for those who have their time and budget a little bit more tight.
