Is this trip for me?
A fairly strenuous hike the circuit takes in some of the very best scenery in Patagonia with its endless sea of ice, snow and glaciers. To enable you to relax after this challenging hike, you will get to stay in the lovely contemporary Hotel Weskar after the hike for a well deserved rest. 
For this hike, you should be in good physical condition and be fit enough to hike for full days on varied terrain. Terrain can be rocky, steep and/or boggy and the section on the Pass can be made more challenging if the weather is bad. The trip is camping for the main part and you should be comfortable with travelling in remote areas. 
Note the trip is fully supported by pack horses and/or porters so you will only need to carry a day pack. Your experienced English speaking wilderness guide will be assisted by a cook who will take care of the practical arrangements while on the hike. All our circuit guides are experienced, trained mountaineers who will provide the safest and most beneficial experience leaving you free to enjoy the jaw dropping scenery and pristine wilderness scenery.
Includes
all accommodation; transfers to and from airport or hotel in Punta Arenas and while in Torres del Paine; guide throughout; pack horses, vehicle support or porters for luggage; all meals with wine while camping; camping equipment (including sleeping bags and mats on request); park and penguin fees.
