Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Torres del Paine Full Day is a panoramic tour suitable for all travelers. It includes a visit to the Cueva del Milodón Natural Monument and the most iconic viewpoints within Torres del Paine National Park. In contrast, the Torres del Paine Viewpoints Trek consists of low- to moderate-difficulty hikes to alternative viewpoints within the park, accessible only on foot. It is designed for travelers who enjoy walking and have a good level of physical fitness. Both activities are different and complementary. The Full Day is the classic tour that allows you to visit the main highlights without significant physical effort, while the Viewpoints Trek offers a more active way to explore the park, with views of the same landscapes from different angles.

  • The trails on this route are mostly of low difficulty, ideal for people with little trekking experience and a sufficient fitness level who want to enjoy the scenery without extreme demands:


    • Aoniken Trail: low difficulty, with a short climb to the rock paintings. Total distance: 7.5 km round trip. Elevation gain of 155 m.
    • Cuernos Trail Viewpoint: low difficulty, almost no elevation gain, with small ups and downs. Total distance: 6.5 km round trip. Elevation gain of 45 m.
    • Cóndor Trail: low-to-medium difficulty, with a steeper climb, and a 360° panoramic view of the park. Total distance: 4 km round trip. Elevation gain of 250 m.


    This combination allows you to enjoy a variety of landscapes and viewpoints without requiring prior trekking experience, but with a willingness to walk and explore.
