After visiting the Perito Moreno glacier in Argentina, it was time to cross the border to Chile and do some serious hiking! For this adventure we hopped on a bus and 6 hours later arrived in Puerto Natales...the jumping off point for the Parque Nacional Torres Del Paine. We hiked and camped in this park for 5 days. We were so lucky with the amazing weather we had and the great people we met along the way! The route we hiked was called the "W" and covered about 90 km.

This mountain had avalanches every 15 minutes. We camped near enough to hear the slides and watch them safely.
