WATCH: Hiking to Mirador Base Torres (Torres del Paine, Chilean Patagonia)

November 10, 20152

On my recent trip to Chile, I had the privilege of hiking the famous W Circuit with Fantástico Sur and an incredible group of Adventure Travel Trade Association members.

On the first day of our trek, we hiked to the Mirador Base Torres, which is what made me want to do this trek in the first place. It is probably the most well-known spot on this circuit; you may recognize it from pictures:

This was just the first day of five incredible days on the W trek, but since I had this specific hike on my bucket list, I decided to document it via video:

    Nice Jackie! It’s beautiful and cold up there. A good tip if you’re going to hike to the towers early in the morning for the sunrise is to bring a sleeping bag up with you. That way, you can chill out and wait for the sunrise and still keep (relatively) toasty 🙂

      That’s what I’ve heard! I have yet to go for sunrise, but I’m sure one day that will happen 🙂
