Description

The journey begins by entering the Señoret channel, heading towards Guanaco Island, where you can sometimes see the wonderful little Magellanic Dolphins (Toninas). We'll sail to the Estancia la Peninsula to access the rocky walls where a large population of cormorants lives, continuing the trip to Punta de Lobos where we'll find some of these mammals. Then we'll visit the waterfall and cliffs where you can spot condors. At each point of interest, the boat will stop so you can enjoy the scenery and attractions. The trip continues to Mount Balmaceda (2035 meters high) where you can see the glacier of the same name. Then you'll disembark in Puerto Toro to start the one-hour round trip hike along the shore of the Témpanos lagoon, accompanied by our bilingual guide. Through a native forest of coihues, ñirres, and ciruelillos, heading to the Serrano glacier, you'll enjoy the fascinating vegetation and the contrast between a clear sky and the ice of the imposing Serrano glacier. We'll head back, visiting a ranch where we'll enjoy a typical Creole lunch from the area. After witnessing a unique, wild, and untouched landscape, we'll wrap up our excursion in Puerto Natales.
