Detailed Itinerary
You will be met by your guide and transferred by private transport from either your hotel in Torres del Paine (Hosteria Las Torres, Pudeto, Hosteria Grey), your hotel/hostel in Puerto Natales or directly from our office at M. Bulnes 1200.

Your trip will begin at the Serrrano river located at the southern border of Torres del Paine National Park. Here we will prepare and distribute the kayaks and begin with the safety and paddling instructions. Our guides will help to recommend the appropriate equipment you will need to take during the trip and the rest of your luggage will be taken directly to Puerto Natales by a private transfer and will be stored in the BlueGreen Adventures office.

During today we will paddle for approximately two hours across the first section of the Serrano river, this is a calm zone and gives us the opportunity to see and assess the level and comfort of kayakers during paddling. The first team activity will take place on arrival at a small waterfall in the river and we will carry the kayaks roughly 100 meters. Depending on weather conditions and the number of daylight hours remaining we will continue for another one or two hours before arriving at the camp for the first night.

Wild camping in a remote site with no facilities. Lunch and dinner included (with wine at dinner).
Will start with a breakfast of fruit, cereal, wholemeal bread, ground coffee and a speciality of the guide. Once our camp has been packed up we will paddle into Tyndall River against the current for approximately three hours to the mouth of the lake, from here crossing glacial moraine through turquoise waters beneath us.

We will spend one hour paddling among the pristine landscape of the Tyndall glacial lake. When we arrive at the bay we will set up camp and have lunch returning to the lake for around two hours in the afternoon where we hope to get up close to the glacier itself. After this we will return to our camp for dinner.

Night camping as above. All meals included (wine at dinner).

Begin with an early breakfast and after packing away our camp we continue our journey paddling back towards the Serrano river. Between the terrain of the National Park and private land we will see views of native forests and glacier covered mountains of the Southern Patagonian ice field finally arriving at Puerto Toro in the Bernardo O'Higgins National Park.

Here you will have the opportunity to walk the trails and visit the glacier lookout and its icebergs while your guide prepares camp and makes dinner.

Night camping as above. All meals included (wine at dinner).
Today we will start early and depending on the weather conditions we will carry our kayaks around 100m to the lagoon of the Serrano Glacier so that we can paddle among the icebergs. This is an incredible experience where we can enjoy the morning light and intensity of colours as we paddle out onto the glacial melt waters. We will finish paddling at about 11.00 a.m.

Before boarding either the 21 de Mayo or D'Agostini boat which departs at 1 p.m. we will return to camp to pack up for the last time. We will stop off at the local estancia Perales to enjoy a farewell BBQ, the final activity of the trip. Arrival at Puerto Natales at about 5 p.m. Transfer to BlueGreen Adventures office. Trip end.

Breakfast and lunch included.
