A hiker's dream, this national park contains huge granite mountains surrounded by clear lakes and a series of well-maintained trails that vary in degree of difficulty.
I have been to many beautiful places from Alaska to Iceland, but this place is a world apart. It's label as the 8th wonder of the world is spot on. I drove around this park with my wife and son and had to stop around every corner to take a photo, and the views just kept getting better. The best view by far was from the top of Mirador Condor (which is where the photo was taken), The air is the freshest I have ever breathed and the views are something out of a painting. We rented a car and winged it, enabling us to go wherever we wanted.This place should be on everyone's bucket list.

Channels and fjords of the Strait of Magellan with beautiful solitary and pristine landscapes. Live the experience of being in contact with the great Humpback Whale. 3 Tours Private for week in a comfortable ship and crew. It includes visit to imposing glacier. SERNATUR Award "Value + Tourist 2015" for Quality Destination and contribution to the diversification of experiences and Innovation
getting close and personal with the whales is not something you can do on a cruise ship. photo opportunity galore. a good day especially if the weather cooperates

We only experienced the short hike to Serrano glacier and got a taste of the unique virgin forest. We were told there are few trails and the park is largely unexplored and undeveloped. This is a gem in the raw and you can hire a private guide to take you to the least visited areas.

Very windy! A very different national park to the others on the west coast (Torres del Paine, Los Glaciares), but worth a visit if you are in the area. The info booth isn't always manned, but there's a good map and free toilets available. The road to Laguna Ana is quite rocking so drive carefully. The drive to Del Diablo was much clearer. We did the hike to Morada del Diablo and back with our 10-month old baby. The path was very well-marked with posts and info boards.

We were pleasantly surprised by the tour - we learned so much that we now are researching more on the moss, lichen, and trees of Tierra Del Fuego. We highly recommend going with one of the guides, as they know so much about the micro-life all around us. Definitely a must-do in Puerto Williams!

The Penguins Natural Monument is located at about 35 km northeast of Punta Arenas. Magdalena Island and the Marta Island, situated in the middle of the Strait of Magellan, is the main part of this natural monument. The largest penguin colonies of south Chile are on this island, including an estimated 60,000 breeding pairs of the Magellanic penguin. A boat tour is required to reach the 2 main islands. An hour is good enough to walk around Magdalena island to view the penguins in their natural habitat. One will also get to see several seagulls. Marta Island can be viewed from a distance from the boat. One will get to see several sea lions in their natural habitat on Marta island. Certainly it is very highly recommended to visit this natural monument when in Punta Arenas.

It is a lovely boat ride to see the Glacier Grey. After leaving the parking area you have to walk approximately 40 minutes, through a rope bridge, a forested area and then approximately 2 kilometers of sand in order to get to the boat. As the wind was very strong during the day we visited, it was not an easy task to do. But viewing the glacier paid us off. Although it is not as grand as Perito Moreno, the backdrop of the jagged mountain tops creates a unique scenery. The deep blue colors of the glacier contrast the black of the volcanic rock and the milky color of the water creating a one of its kind landscape. The crew of the catamaran was very helpful, obsessed with safety as everyone HAD to wear life jackets once stepped outside and they offered exceptional pisco sours! Yes, it is a bit overpriced but the whole experience is unforgettable.
