Tell us about Torres del Paine
It was an experience walking with 22-24 lbs on our back. Weather was very cooperative so enjoyed the trek. WE were fed pretty good. :-) Stay at all the refugios was good and comfortable. Food was good too except at Paine Grande. Also, here, when the lights were turned off from midnight to 6am, it was pitch dark, even in the hallways and bathrooms. That is very unsafe.
Tell us about the Trekking
Our guides were good. Our only issue is not been given an option to hike upto Britanico point in French Valley on Day 3. We thought we were short changed. I would recommend that guides be aware of some souvenir shops in Puerto Natales where we could have bought some T-Shirts with towers as the graphics. Some of the fellow hikers bought them at PN, but we couldn't find the shop. if you can arrange to ship them to us, please connect. :-)
Something Else?
Next time, please give the option to trek the entire W-Trek- with Britanico Point included. Let the group and guide decide to continue or not.
