A challenging 15 day exploration of one of the world's most pristine wildernesses: Patagonia! ...

This is one of the great beauty spots of the world. The granite pinnacles of Torres del Paine (Towers of Paine) and Cuernos del Paine (Horns of Paine) dominate a glacier-carved landscape of icy lakes and tundra plains where herds of guanaco graze.
