Itinerary description
Torres del Paine is one of the most popular trek destinations in Chile and "W" is the most popular trek there. This is a description of this trek done in reverse order - starting from glacier Grey and finishing at the Torres. Doing it this way makes it slightly easier, allows you to witness the Torres during the sunrise and put a pressure on you on the last day to catch a ferry which goes only once a day.
Day 3, Lago Nordenskjold: This is the hardest day of the trek as you take all of your equipment with you and go around the magnificent lago Nordenskjold all the way up to Torres basecamp. Along the way we pass campamento Cuernos and campamento Chileno. The trail traverses many hills and is quite difficult (especially at the end), but the views are gorgeous.
