On this beautiful day in the Chilean region of Patagonia, we trekked the renowned Mirador Las Torres Trail in Torres del Paine National Park. This UNESCO site was a bucket list hike for us, and it did not disappoint. Roughly 13.5 miles in length with ~3,400 in elevation gain, this hike is easy enough for the moderately experienced hiker, even though it is technically rated as "hard."

On this day, we traveled from El Calafate, Argentina, to Puerto Natales, Chile, to explore the Chilean side of Patagonia. This region is home to Torres del Paine National Park and its renowned Paine Grande mountain peaks. On our first day in the Park, we embarked on an easy hike totaling 3.9 miles, suitable for anyone with basic fitness. We strongly recommend this hike, even if you're not an avid hiker. It's simple, mostly flat, and offers breathtaking views all along the way
