Tell us about Torres del Paine
This is only applicable to the 3-day W Trek. One glitch--we were advised that we would need to carry everything for the three-day trek with us at the beginning of the first day, and we would be able to leave some excess baggage in Puerto Natales with the local provider (Chile Nativo), so we had purchased a larger day back to carry more gear. During the pre-trek meeting we learned that the van transporting us to the park on that first day was also going to take us to Serrano Camp. We were happy not to carry as much in our packs, but didn't really need the larger pack we purchased.
Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Patagonia?
We did the 3-day W Trek and the Highlights of Los Glaciares back-to-back with a travel day by bus in between. If doing this, consider building in another rest day in El Chaltén before the first hike there.
How prepared and excited for Patagonia did you feel?
We felt very prepared and a combination of very excited and a little nervous about traveling to a new place.
Would you consider another trip to Patagonia with Swoop?
Yes
Would you be interested in travelling to Antarctica with Swoop?
Yes
