The W Trek is the most popular hiking route in Torres del Paine. Over 4 to 6 days, this iconic trail takes you through the heart of the park’s most stunning scenery: from the massive Glacier Grey, to the soaring granite spires of the French Valley, to the world-famous viewpoint at the Base of the Towers. It's a more accessible alternative to the full O Circuit, perfect for those with limited time or who prefer a slightly less demanding route, but still packed with unforgettable views and wild Patagonian landscapes.

With a fully personalised W Trek itinerary, everything is tailored to suit your travel style, pace, and comfort preferences. Whether you’d like to stay in cosy refugios, enjoy a mix of camping and dorms, or upgrade to more luxurious options like EcoCamp, we’ll build a route that matches your ideal experience. You can choose from full-board, half-board, or self-catered meal plans, add on extras like kayaking or a rest day, and adjust the number of hiking days to suit your pace. It’s the most flexible and comfortable way to take on the W Trek—without sacrificing the adventure.
