Luxury holidays in Torres del Paine

The untamed wilderness of Torres del Paine National Park is about as remote as it gets. You’ll soon see why this wind-whipped terrain of mountain-mirroring lakes, monumental glaciers and jagged peaks entranced Magellan, Drake and Darwin. Whether you dream of making a multi-day trek, exploring on horseback like a galloping gaucho or just want to view the vistas from the comfort of a toasty eco-lodge, there’s something for everyone in this hulking land of expedition and adventure.

When to go

There are no guarantees with weather this changeable but, typically, peak season runs from October to March, with September and April providing quieter shoulder seasons.

Getting there

  • Planes

    Fly direct to Santiago – non-stop flights operate from major European hubs, Mexico City, Bogotá, and select US destinations, including New York, Dallas, Atlanta, Houston and Miami. Then, catch a flight to Punta Arenas (frequent) or Puerto Natales (less frequent, but it’s closer), the nearest towns to the national park.

  • Automobiles

    To disconnect from civilisation, you’ve got to go far – distances in this part of the world are vast and you’ll need a four-wheel drive. Brace yourself for bumpy terrain.
