About this activity

Experience Torres del Paine National Park's iconic peaks, turquoise lakes, and glacial landscapes on this comprehensive 8-hour day tour from Puerto Natales. You'll hike past ancient lenga forests, witness calving icebergs at Grey Glacier, and visit multiple viewpoints that showcase why this is one of South America's most dramatic mountain destinations.

The tour starts early from your hotel in the city of Puerto Natales. We will go in the direction of the border village of Cerro Castillo then stop at the viewpoint of Lake Sarmiento the largest lake in the park. Upon arrival at the Laguna Amarga sector you will be able to appreciate an excellent panoramic view of the Torres del Paine. The trip continues to the viewpoint of Nordenskjold Lake and then a 30 to 45 minute walk to the Salto Grande waterfall, with a magnificent view of the entire mountain range and Pehoe Lake.

Then the tour goes to the Lake Grey sector to walk for about an hour, passing through an old lenga forest and arriving at the beach of the same lake, from where you can admire the Paine Massif from its west side and the intense blue tones of the icebergs that come from the Grey Glacier which is part of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field. In this place there is free time to have lunch in the cafeteria or take your own picnic.

The return to Puerto Natales is through the Porteria Rio Serrano sector, to finish the tour visiting the Milodon Cave Natural Monument for about 30 minutes. Finally, you will be transferred to your hotel.

Insider tips

  • Bring layers and waterproof jacket—Patagonian weather changes rapidly, even in summer
  • Pack a picnic or budget extra for the Grey Lake cafeteria; limited food options elsewhere in the park
  • Start early to maximize daylight; winter (May–August) reduces visibility and hiking window
  • Wear sturdy hiking boots with ankle support; trails mix rocky terrain and muddy sections

Good to know

  • Total walking time is roughly 1.5–2 hours across multiple sections; fitness level required is moderate
  • Hotel pickup from Puerto Natales is included; confirm your accommodation at booking
  • No national park entrance fee mentioned; verify if included in the EUR 98 price
  • Lunch break is unstructured at Grey Lake—bring snacks if you don't plan to eat at the cafeteria
  • High altitude varies (300–600m); acclimatization is generally not needed for day visitors
