Tierra del Fuego & Patagonia

16 Day Trekking trip at the end of the world

Terra Australis Incognito - that is how the very first sailors and discoverers called this mystic landscape on the uttermost part of the world. And still it exudes its fabulous atmosphere and the unknown of these times… - just one reason why this secluded area is so incredibly attractive to the real adventurers. Our fantastic expedition takes us to two of the most extraordinary places on this planet that amaze even experienced trekkers.

First, we are heading for the famous "W" - Hike in the Torres del Paine National Park to reach the vast Southern Patagonian Ice field. After this awesome experience we spend unforgettable days in the wild interior of Navarino Island on the mythic Tierra del Fuego. During our various mountain- and trekking tours we will camp next to subantarctic rainforests, snowcapped mountains and turquoise green lagoons. Moreover, the ascent of a mountain on the edge of the spectacular Patagonian Ice field will be another highlight of this exciting tour.

This is definitely an outstanding experience for all people who are looking for the hidden trek...
