The excursion takes place between spectacular icebergs of enormous size and varied shapes.

The tour begins with a visit to the Milodón Cave, a remarkable cavern measuring 200 meters in length, 30 meters in height, and 80 meters in width, located 25 km from Puerto Natales.
A half-hour walk takes us into the cave, where remains of extinct animals have been found, including the dwarf horse, bear, panther, and saber-toothed tiger.
We pass through Cerro Castillo, where we stop at a café before continuing toward Torres del Paine, crossing numerous ranches and a landscape that transitions from steppe to deciduous forest.
Torres del Paine is world-renowned for the massif that gives it its name—granite giants sculpted by the force of glacial ice.
Upon entering the park, we discover a series of intensely colored lagoons, ice-covered mountains, and abundant local wildlife. We will then take a 15-minute walk to Salto Grande on the Paine River.
After lunch, we continue to Grey Lake, where we will take a walk to the beach, from which we can admire the distant Grey Glacier.
