Discover Patagonia
On this superb trekking holiday in Patagonia we explore the very best of the region's vast
wilderness and include memorable overnights in the award winning EcoCamp Patagonia,
which offers amazing panoramas of the spectacular Paine Towers from each dome! A land of
huge glaciers, cascading waterfalls, awe-inspiring granite peaks, breath taking lakes and
exciting wildlife, nothing can prepare you for the beauty of Patagonia, especially the most
famous peaks of Torres del Paine and Cerro Fitz Roy.
