Expert-led Patagonia hiking tours in an extraordinary landscape
There’s a raw beauty and grandeur to the dramatic peaks, immense glaciers and jewel-blue lakes of Patagonia that’s like nowhere else in the world. This remote region of Chile and Argentina – which encompasses the southern section of the Andes mountain range – has some of the world’s most coveted vistas, best appreciated from Patagonia’s epic hiking trails. And best of all, much of the region remains off the beaten path and peacefully secluded.
From the luxury of your remote design-led lodge, set out with an expert mountain guide to experience the highlights of Patagonia’s hiking trails, from the challenging Laguna de los Tres hike in Argentina’s trekking capital, El Chaltén, to stunning alpine lakes beneath the jagged peaks of Fitz Roy in Los Glaciares National Park, and the ancient beech forests along the Beagle Channel in Ushuaia’s Tierra del Fuego National Park. In Chilean Patagonia, tackle an individual section of the W Trek – the classic trail of the Torres del Paine National Park – or take an excursion to the Exploradores Glacier viewpoint in North Aysén, where you’ll see the vastness of the North Patagonian Ice Field unfold below.
