Description

Tour from Puerto Natales, visiting the Laguna Amarga and the Milodon Cave, Full Day Torres del Paine. The first stop of the trip will be Cerro Castillo, capital of the commune of Torres del Paine and last point before entering the national park. Then, you will continue on your way to the Sarmiento Lake viewpoint. Here you will be able to take pictures and see how the sun follows its path during the morning. If the weather is good, you will have the first panoramic view of the Torres del Paine and see its reflection in the water, a true spectacle of nature. Afterwards, you will go to the Laguna Amarga viewpoint, where you will have a closer view of the towers, the lagoon and the flamingos that live there. Then, you will enter the park through the Laguna Amarga Gateway and take the road to see Lake Nordenskjöld. You will continue on the road to visit the Salto Grande waterfall, from where you will also have a panoramic view of the Cuernos del Paine. Afterwards, you will pass by the viewpoint of Lake Pehoé and continue to Lake Grey. Here you will have some free time to have lunch and also walk along the beach, from where you will have breathtaking views of the Paine Massif, weather permitting. You may encounter an ice floe blown by the wind from the glacier to the shore of the beach. Finally, you will go to the Milodon Cave Natural Monument, a space made up of three caves of which you will visit the main one, where the remains of this prehistoric animal were found more than 100 years ago. Afterwards, you will return to Puerto Natales. Full Day Perito Moreno Glacier Cross the border with our full day Perito Moreno Glacier tour from Puerto Natales and get to know the most famous glacier in the Argentine Patagonia.
