More on Patagonia Highlights trekking trip
We start in El Calafate, Argentina, and head to El Chalten.
From here, we trek into our fully-equipped camps in the park – sleeping bags and tents already set up for you, as well as a dining tent and toilet facilities.
You are rewarded, for your efforts, with superb views of Fitzroy, Cerro Torre and the Torre Glacier.
Leaving the park, we dedicate an entire day dedicated to seeing the enormous Perito Moreno Glacier.
Paine National Park and Tierra del Fuego
Cross to Chile and Paine National Park and its mountain and ice gems: the base of the triple towers of Torres, the French Valley and trek to the Grey Glacier.
Those short on time can leave on day 12 and return to your Calafate hostal, leaving from Calafate on day 13.
Or, for the full trip, travel overland to Tierra del Fuego, Ushuaia.
En route we stay in mountain lodges and estancias, experiencing the life of the gauchos while visiting stunning lakes and crossing the Magellan Straits.
In Ushuaia, the wildlife comes thick and fast as we visit Tierra del Fuego National Park and the Beagle Channel, home to much marine life and a suitable end to this fantastic Patagonia Highlights trip.

Corinne Finn, UK, Tailor-made Ecuador, Chile and Argentina, Sep-Nov 2023 ‘During our extended trip in South America from September to November, my husband Kevin and I explored the breathtaking landscapes and cultures of Ecuador, Argentina, and Chile." "In Ecuador, we climbed volcanoes over 4000 meters high, explored the Amazon and cloud forests, and snorkelled with penguins in the Galapagos Islands." "We visited Ushuaia, the southernmost city on Earth, the Chilean fjords and hiked through the iconic peaks and lakes of Torres del Paine National Park in Patagonia. Finally, we enjoyed the remarkable landscapes of the Atacama Desert." "This unforgettable journey was amazingly and professionally organized by Kathy and team from Andean Trails, who took the time to understand our needs and requirements. After extensive discussions, they tailored the trip to ensure it was everything we hoped for and more. We would highly recommend them for anyone planning a similar adventure. The experience enriched us both, leaving us with lifelong memories"
Corinne Finn
"Everything went together seamlessly. The accommodations that I had were very nice, clean, and good locations. "Transfers worked great. Argentina worked out fine and found people to hike with. "Chile was perfect as well, but the guide was the one who made the trip. And, of course, Easter Island again was fantastic. "Thank you for all your hard work. It paid off. I am a very happy customer."
