See the mighty granite peaks of Torres del Paine
The Torres del Paine National Park is one of the most visited and well-known destinations in Chile and rightly so. Rugged, hard to reach, windswept and the wild expanse of the Torres del Paine National Park provide a dramatic and unforgettable adventure. Often referred to as the 8th Wonder of the World there are plenty of outdoor activities to keep you occupied from a number of day hikes of varying difficulty to horseback riding through the vast landscape of the National Park. Its massive granite peaks, huge glaciers, electric blue glacial lakes and cascading waterfalls will capture your attention everywhere you look. The pointed granite peaks of Los Cuernos del Paine (Horns of Paine) have become one of the most defining characteristics of the National Park, rising up to over 8,530ft. these dark tusks are simply spectacular and are even more breathtaking when you hike to their base. Nothing can really prepare you for the sheer scale of the scenery and Torres del Paine National Park but we can assure you that you will be spoiled with breathtaking panoramas and travel experiences which will blow your mind.
