A great way to experience the highlights of Patagonia's iconic hiking trails with the support and camaraderie of a group and guide, and the flexibility to add in extra hikes and excursions if you want to cram in as much as possible!

Group trekking tours in Patagonia
Patagonia is a hiker's paradise with world class trails. Whether you're looking to see the highlights on the famous W Trek or go off the beaten track somewhere more remote, there are group trekking trips in every region of Patagonia.
Most group trekking tours come packaged with fixed itineraries, dates and prices, making them easy to plan around to give you peace of mind. Group sizes tend to be around 15 travellers at most, and you'll really get to know each other as you discover Patagonia's scenery together.

Self-guided and private hiking
If you have a little more experience hiking and like the sound of exploring on your own schedule, there are lots of trails which you can explore either independently or with a private guide. These range from multi-day hikes to day hikes from a base, and often mean you can get a little off the beaten track.
For those for whom hiking is a passion, ask us about linking together hikes in a few different destinations as part of your trip to Patagonia, enabling you to tick off many of the trekking gems of South America. Your itinerary could combine hiking and trekking through rainforests, over the ice cap, climbing mountains, traversing steppe and skirting lakes and volcanoes in the lake district.
