Trekking in Patagonia
Patagonia hiking and trekking tours and holidays are unbeatable. The scenery is stunning, the wildlife abundant, the food and wine fabulous, the walking beautiful.
From September to May each year this enigmatic land of wonderful wildlife, vast sky, grassy pampas, soaring Andean peaks and sparkling glaciers springs to life.
The star attractions of southern Patagonia and top spots for lovers of active holidays are Torres del Paine National Park in Chile and Fitzroy National Park in Argentina. Both offer half-day walks, full days out on the trail and Patagonia trekking tours of multi-day routes.
In both, we offer small group guided walking holidays, bespoke private guided hiking tailored exactly to your preferences and self-guided hiking holidays. Choose what suits you best.
Trekking is our passion. We love to trek the trails of Patagonia ourselves and explore new routes to share. Ask us about the difficulty of trekking the Paine W or how tough the South Patagonia ice cap trek is.
Patagonia hikes also include crossing from El Chalten to Villa O’Higgins, El Tronador or Cerro Catedral in the Lake District and the less well-known Cochamo, Montes Martial in Ushuaia or prehistoric feeling Conguillío National Park.
The options for Patagonia trekking and walking tours and holidays are many and varied. Choose top quality hotels, spa hotels, ecolodges, eco-domes, mountain refuges or camping. Walk half a day or three weeks.
The wide-open spaces of Patagonia, with its friendly welcome, top quality guides, fresh air, awe-inspiring granite spires and blue lakes and glaciers, await.
Our trip was really wonderful. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute and I can honestly say that there weren't any low points.
But, there were many highlights. Camp Poincenot in the woods in the snow was chilly but fun. Amazing views of Fitzroy. Our tour leader Flor was excellent as was Fernando, one of the mountain guides. The wildlife was memorable.
All the accommodation was generally very good. The camps were really good fun, good fun and really warm sleeping bags.
