Torres del Paine National Park
Najbolje vreme za posetu
From November to March, summer in the southern hemisphere, the days are longest, the winds are weaker, and the trails are open. Start at dawn for the best light and calm trails, and keep backup routes for rainy days.
Saveti za budžet
The entry ticket for foreigners costs about 25,000 to 35,000 Chilean pesos, valid for 72 hours, so plan your days and buy online so you don't wait at the ticket office. Take food and water from the nearest town for the trail, because prices in the park shops are higher.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: The three granite towers rise up to 2800 meters, and around 100 pumas live freely in the park, most often seen hunting at dawn. The national territory covers 2400 square kilometers, and the water in the glacial lakes glows milky turquoise because of the glacial flour.
Istaknuto: At dawn, right before the sun rises, the three granite towers glow fiery orange, a spectacle that lasts only about 20 minutes, like burning embers in the shadowy valley. When you approach the lagoon beneath them, the air smells of cold granite and wet rock, and the glacial flour turns the water pastel blue.
Insajderski saveti
- Wear three layers of clothing and a waterproof jacket, because the wind in Patagonia can jump to 120 kilometers per hour in minutes.
- Book accommodation in the refugio months ahead for the summer season, when the places get filled up to 90%.
- Go out with a headlamp at dawn for the pumas, and for the clearest shot of the towers, aim your lens right around 6:30 before the sun rises.
- Skip the 16-kilometer trail to Grey Glacier when you have little time, and take the boat across the lake for close-up shots of the ice walls.
