Torres del Paine W trek in Patagonia
Description of Torres del Paine W trek in Patagonia
This Torres del Paine trekking circuit will give you a workout in settings of outstanding beauty. After spending your first day relaxing and acclimatising, you’ll hit the trails bright and early, spending four days passing through forests, up mountainsides and across valleys. The scenery will be stunning throughout, with views of glaciers, lakes and the Paine Massif.
This is a tough trek. There are several challenging ascents, so you’ll need to be fit to take it on. You’ll need to bring a 40 litre backpack, a small daypack, and comfortable hiking gear and boots, including waterproofs and warm clothes.

Planet
As a local Argentina Travel Company, we hold a deep appreciation for the Earth's natural wonders and understand the importance of their preservation. However, we believe that sustainability alone is insufficient. Travel, in our view, is a potent instrument for creating a positive impact on the destinations we explore.Let's take courageous strides toward a brighter future where we not only safeguard our planet but also leave it in a better state than we found it. This forms the bedrock of sustainable tourism.
Our Strategy: PLANT
Our approach is straightforward: PLANT. Set new objectives. Plant more. Repeat.
In collaboration with ReforestArg, we plant ten trees for every traveler to contribute to the cherished landscapes we adore.
Twice a year, we journey to Cholila, Chubut – Argentine Patagonia – to plant these trees, playing our part in preserving native forests, bolstering the local community, and giving back to Mother Earth.
Currently, we have achieved our goal of planting 20,000 native trees in Patagonia. However, our journey towards regenerative tourism is just beginning. With great pride, we redefine our objectives and introduce "Say Bosque": a forest of native trees planted in Patagonia.
Our commitment is to plant 100,000 native trees before the next Pachamama Day (August 1, 2024).
Zero-Plastic Policy
Our journeys are free of single-use plastics.
We hold our suppliers to exacting standards, requiring them to replace single-use plastics, such as bottles, containers, and disposable cutlery, with sturdy, eco-friendly alternatives.
This is a commitment we reaffirm year after year as we strive to minimize our ecological footprint and contribute to a healthier planet.
Through this initiative, we prevent more than 9,200 plastic bottles from entering the environment annually.
