Bucket List Travel to Patagonia, Chile: Where to Stay and How to Hike

As we look to the new year and travelers define their 2024 goals, Patagonia should be in every adventure traveler's bucket list. With peak hiking season through April and direct flights to Chile from US cities like Dallas, Atlanta and Miami, now is the perfect time for adventure travelers to plan their bucket list trip to the region.

When visiting, travelers can stay in comfort at the all-inclusive Las Torres Patagonia, located at the entrance of Torres del Paine National Park (home to the famous Cuernos del Paine peaks). The hotel operates with a generational mission of regenerative travel and preserving rich Patagonian culture with authentic experiences like excursions with local Chilean Cowboy and voluntourism trips to help rebuild the trails of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Las Torres has the first sustainable cocktail bar in Patagonia, serving its own hotel-brewed beer and hotel-made gin Tierra Paine Gin, which is created through an ancestral clay distillation process using glacial water sourced from nearby waterfalls of Mount Cerro Paine.

When staying at Hotel Las Torres, hikers can take on the diverse trekking circuits, including the famous W and O routes, leading to soaring mountains and bright blue icebergs. Guests can choose from 4 trails on the famous W and O Circuits, all with stunning views of the mountains of Torres del Paine National Park. Las Torres Patagonia also offers 16 exclusive Day Tours, which guests can mix and match based on their preferences and schedule.

"The W and O routes in Patagonia, Chile are home to the famous Cuernos del Paine peaks, which should be on every hiker's bucket list," said Juan Lopez, marketing and sales director. "From October through April, the soaring mountains and bright blue icebergs along the routes are highlighted with spring flowers and teeming with vegetation. Las Torres Patagonia, the gateway to Torres del Paine National Park, is perfect for every hiker, offering an all-inclusive hotel with its own hotel-made gin and beer, plus campsites and more. With four trails on the famous circuits and even 16 exclusive day tours, all with stunning views of the mountains, Patagonia offers a unique experience for every traveler."
