Tour en montagne / Tour #143384
Torres del Paine "W" Circuit

This was my favourite trek in South America, well maybe apart from the Cordillera Huayhuash in Peru anyway. Spectacular scenery, we had wonderful weather, and the refuges were a cut above anything else in South America. We did the whole thing through an agency as we were just on holiday in Chile but you don't need a guide so if you are already in SA and have all the equipment with you (ie: if you're backpacking) I think you could easily do it yourself.

We did this W trek as a 5-day hike, but I think you can also do a complete loop aroudn the northern edge of the National Park if you have the time - I think 7 days?
