About this trip

This is the classic W Trek through Chile's Torres del Paine, done properly but without the load — you walk each day with just a day pack while your main kit is moved on for you.

Over seven days you cover the full route on foot, guided throughout, at a pace pitched as moderate rather than gruelling. It suits people who want the real trekking experience without turning it into an exercise in carrying weight.

Small group, fully guided, and set up so the walking stays the focus rather than the logistics.

What you'll do

  • Walk the complete W Trek route through Torres del Paine National Park
  • Trek each day carrying only a day pack, with the rest of your gear transferred for you
  • Cover the trek's full distance over multiple consecutive hiking days
  • Take on the route as part of a small guided group
Good to know
  • Moderate difficulty — expect consecutive days of hiking rather than one-off exertion
  • Day-pack-only format means less physical strain but you're still committing to back-to-back trekking days
  • Fully guided throughout, so it suits those who'd rather not navigate or plan logistics themselves
