Torres del Paine & Milodon cave. Day tour from Puerto Natales

To start the tour, we’ll pick you up at your accommodations in Puerto Natales with a shuttle bus. Once on the bus, we’ll head to the famous Torres del Paine National Park, a journey of about two hours. We’ll enter the park through the Portería Laguna Amarga Gate where you’ll have excellent views of the Torres del Paine.

We’ll begin our tour on the roads of Torres del Paine National Park. From the comfort of the shuttle bus, you’ll see the park’s unique Patagonian steppe. In addition, throughout the tour, you’ll catch glimpses of the breathtaking Macizo Paine.

Keeping on the tour, we’ll stop at the most famous viewpoints of Torres del Paine: Lake Sarmiento Viewpoint, Laguna Amarga Viewpoint, and Lake Noderhold Viewpoint. Each viewpoint offers very different landscapes of the various ecosystems of the park. Once we arrive at the Pehoé Camping Sector, we’ll stop for lunch with the group and guides to enjoy a beautiful view of Lake Pehoé and the Cuernos del Paine while we munch away.

Along the way, we’ll cross the ancient Lenga Forest before reaching the shore of Lake Grey. From there, we’ll stroll along the beach and admire the many shades of blue in the ice of Grey Glacier, which originates from the Southern Patagonian Ice Field. We’ll be able to see the glacier from a distance, taking in its majestic beauty across the lake.

We begin our return trip by driving through the Portería Serrano Sector to Puerto Natales, however this is not the end of the tour. Before finishing the Torres del Paine Day Tour, you’ll visit one of the most intriguing sites of the park, the Milodon Cave Natural Monument. This cave is famous for the discovered remains of an extinct species of large herbivorous mammals endemic to Patagonia and related to the current two-toed ground sloth.

When the visit to the Milodon Cave is over, we’ll return to Puerto Natales. Arrival time should be between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., thus marking the end of an all-day tour of Torres del Paine and Milodon Cave and this intense but fantastic day.
