Classic Hikes of Patagonia

Fifteen days of proper trekking through the wildest corners of Argentina and Chile, bookended by Buenos Aires. This is a trip built around walking - some days short and steady, others long and demanding, all through landscapes that do the talking.

You'll hike to Laguna de Los Tres and Laguna Torre with their glacial water and jagged peaks, then spend days deep inside Torres del Paine National Park, camping among glaciers with rhea and flamingos for company. It finishes with a lagoon hike in Ushuaia before one last night back in Buenos Aires.

This suits people who genuinely want to hike, not just look at mountains from a coach window. The better your fitness, the more you'll get out of it.
