The road then crosses the river and climbs a bumpy but short road to the village. On approaching the village take the left fork which crosses back across the river and up to a car park surrounded by stalls offering various products and services for tourists.<br /> <br /> === Public transport and hitchhiking === <br /> [[Image: Perfil_trekking_glaciar_San_Francisco.png|thumb|200px|left|Profile altitude trekking. The vertical scale is increased]] <br /> The municipal bus line (Turmaipo) conducts tours to Baños Morales. From October until 1 January, the bus departs on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. From the first of January until the 15th of March, buses leave everyday. The buses depart from Metrobus Terminal Bellavista de la Florida (the penultimate station on subway line 5). If you have any questions the subway guards can help. A return ticket to Banos Morales costs $ 6,000 (confirm with Turmaipo: 8611518 to 8612450, or their website). There are rates for intermediate lengths. The bus leaves at 8:30 and returning at 6:00. You can also take this bus in Puente Alto, outside the station Las Mercedes, where the bus passes at 8:50. It then reaches San Jose de Maipo at around 9:35 and arrives at Baños Morales about 11 am. You'll recognize the bus by its number, &quot;MB-72&quot;.<br /> <br /> A number of companies provide transport by minibus to Banos Morlaes on weekends (Turismontaña (8500555 / 8500783) and ARPU Tourism (6818475 and 09-9320108)). These buses can also be privately hired for an agreed price. both buses depart from Baquedano Metro Station (Plaza Italia), on the Telefonica side of the building. <br /> <br /> ==Route description == <br /> [[Image:Ruta glaciar san francisco.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Route Glacier San Francisco]] <br /> [[Image: Comienzos_Trek_Glaciar_San_Francisco.jpg|thumb|150px | right | Beginning of the trek (40 min)]] <br /> [[Image: Valle_Aguas_Panimavida.jpg|thumb|150px|right|View of the Valley of the Waters of Panimávida. Photo taken on the return walk from north to south]] <br /> <br /> From CONAF, the route climbs steeply for about 45 minutes. The trail then enters the valley, joining an old vehicular road that zigzags upwards. After about an hour, once the path has climbed this initial lip of moraine, the valley narrows and you come to Panimávida Waters, a number of mineral water wells. From then on, the gradient decreases, and the path continues up the valley, with the impressive south face of Morado as a backdrop. After about 1-2 hours of easy flat walking you will reach Laguna de Morales (often mistakenly called &quot;Laguna Morado&quot; For this laguna, see [[Glaciar del Morado]]). This makes a picturesque end point, but it is advisable to continue another hour more, approaching the base of the glacier San Francisco. The trail is somewhat less clear, the slope increases and you are more likely to find snow between October and December.<br /> <br /> ===Expected Time=== <br /> <br /> At a normal pace, this trek should take about 3-4 hours between CONAF and the viewpoint of the glacier (the original article said 4 but this seems an overestimate).

<p>Sam Collins: </p> <hr /> <div>A beautiful weekend-away trek encompassing the best scenery Central Chile has to offer. Stunning panoramic views over the volcanoes of the region, a picturesque crater lake and beautiful forested valleys. Best of all it's easily reachable from Santiago by public transport!<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0011_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Views over the Central Lircay valley and its blanket of native forest]] <br /> <br /> == Season ==<br /> November to April but beware as snow can linger on the path down to the Laguna till December so it may be advisable to come prepared for snow if done in early November or late April. <br /> <br /> == Access ==<br /> <br /> '''By Car''' <br /> <br /> From Talca take Route 115 toward San Clemente. 40 miles from Talca divert to Vilches, turning left on a paved road in good condition. From here it is 29 miles, the first 9 of which are paved, the rest is a gravel track in good condition.<br /> <br /> '''By public transport''' <br /> <br /> Buses Vilches goes from Talca bus station (opposite the Pullman and Tur Bus terminal) to the entrance to the park, you can get slightly further by car. Departures are currently (2009) 7:15, 12:00, 13:00 and 16:50 (an extra at 19:30 on Fridays) Monday to Saturday, returning at 7:15, 9:15, 13:50, 17:10 (an extra at 19:15 on Fridays). On Sundays and bank holidays the 7:15 changes to 8:15 and the bus back at 9:15 departs at 11:50. It costs $1400 each way and takes approximately two hours depending on how packed full of people it is and how much mail they have to deliver. It is also much quicker on the way back as it is going downhill! <br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0019_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Laguna del Alto with Cerro Peine behind]]<br /> Follow the dirt road another couple of km to the administrative entrance and then on to the camping (the site with facilities). From here the trail is clearly sign-posted to the right on a large well-kept track of the Sendero de Chile. From here it's another couple of km to the first campamento (site without facilities). After the campsite the path turns into a small gully with a stream and back out the other side where a clearly signed path branches to the right marked the Laguna del Alto. Taking this the path climbs approximately 600m in 3km out of the forest cover and onto the Plateau above. At one point it veers to the left until it is almost horizontal with the slope but don't worry and keep following it until it turns back in on itself higher up. Once on the plateau the path spits in two. Take the marked path to the right. After about 1km of flat walking the path descends over a ridge and down 150m into the crater lake below. Significant amounts of snow can linger into December making the path hard to find but don't worry there are other arguably easier routes down to the Laguna. The actual path goes off to the right from the sign post at the top of the crater and comes back down to the left coming out on the bottom of the Laguna. From here it is also possible to climb Cerro Paine although this makes the day a long one and the winter gear is required all the way into December. <br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0024_(Small).jpg|thumb|200px|left|A swim in the Laguna]]<br /> The banks of the lakes are a perfect spot for a quick break before ascending back up the way you came to the top of the crater. From the signpost at the top take the branching path to the right and not back the way you came. The path is obvious all the way as it makes it's away across the plateau, occasionally marked with cairns and parallel lines of rocks. After about a km the path joins with the fork we ignored earlier and makes it's way along the lower left side of the plateau through interesting volcanic rock formations. After 3 km the path reaches to Enladrillado, a flat rock plain which can be seen clearly from a distance away.

<p>Sam Collins: </p> <hr /> <div>A beautiful weekend-away trek encompassing the best scenery Central Chile has to offer. Stunning panoramic views over the volcanoes of the region, a picturesque crater lake and beautiful forested valleys. Best of all it's easily reachable from Santiago by public transport!<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0011_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Views over the Central Lircay valley and its blanket of native forest]] <br /> <br /> == Season ==<br /> November to April but beware as snow can linger on the path down to the Laguna till December so it may be advisable to come prepared for snow if done in early November or late April. <br /> <br /> == Access ==<br /> <br /> '''By Car''' <br /> <br /> From Talca take Route 115 toward San Clemente. 40 miles from Talca divert to Vilches, turning left on a paved road in good condition. From here it is 29 miles, the first 9 of which are paved, the rest is a gravel track in good condition.<br /> <br /> '''By public transport''' <br /> <br /> Buses Vilches goes from Talca bus station (opposite the Pullman and Tur Bus terminal) to the entrance to the park, you can get slightly further by car. Departures are currently (2009) 7:15, 12:00, 13:00 and 16:50 (an extra at 19:30 on Fridays) Monday to Saturday, returning at 7:15, 9:15, 13:50, 17:10 (an extra at 19:15 on Fridays). On Sundays and bank holidays the 7:15 changes to 8:15 and the bus back at 9:15 departs at 11:50. It costs $1400 each way and takes approximately two hours depending on how packed full of people it is and how much mail they have to deliver. It is also much quicker on the way back as it is going downhill! <br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0019_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Laguna del Alto with Cerro Peine behind]]<br /> Follow the dirt road another couple of km to the administrative entrance and then on to the camping (the site with facilities). From here the trail is clearly sign-posted to the right on a large well-kept track of the Sendero de Chile. From here it's another couple of km to the first campamento (site without facilities). After the campsite the path turns into a small gully with a stream and back out the other side where a clearly signed path branches to the right marked the Laguna del Alto. Taking this the path climbs approximately 600m in 3km out of the forest cover and onto the Plateau above. At one point it veers to the left until it is almost horizontal with the slope but don't worry and keep following it until it turns back in on itself higher up. Once on the plateau the path spits in two. Take the marked path to the right. After about 1km of flat walking the path descends over a ridge and down 150m into the crater lake below. Significant amounts of snow can linger into December making the path hard to find but don't worry there are other arguably easier routes down to the Laguna. The actual path goes off to the right from the sign post at the top of the crater and comes back down to the left coming out on the bottom of the Laguna. From here it is also possible to climb Cerro Paine although this makes the day a long one and the winter gear is required all the way into December. <br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0024_(Small).jpg|thumb|200px|left|A swim in the Laguna]]<br /> The banks of the lakes are a perfect spot for a quick break before ascending back up the way you came to the top of the crater. From the signpost at the top take the branching path to the right and not back the way you came. The path is obvious all the way as it makes it's away across the plateau, occasionally marked with cairns and parallel lines of rocks. After about a km the path joins with the fork we ignored earlier and makes it's way along the lower left side of the plateau through interesting volcanic rock formations. After 3 km the path reaches to Enladrillado, a flat rock plain which can be seen clearly from a distance away. Much is made of the apparently strange UFO launch-pad nature of this rock platform but what really impresses is the stunning views of Descabezado Grande (the Decapitated volcano) and Cerro Azul straight ahead, the beautiful forests and valley surrounding them and the endless views of the high snow-capped volcanoes that stretch down the backbone of Chile. <br /> <br /> Once you've spent a sufficient amount of time soaking in the views take the clearly marked path to the right down off the plateau that you passed just before reaching Enladrillado.

From here it is 29 miles, the first 9 of which are paved, the rest is a gravel track in good condition.<br /> <br /> '''By public transport''' <br /> <br /> Buses Vilches goes from Talca bus station (opposite the Pullman and Tur Bus terminal) to the entrance to the park, you can get slightely further by car. Departures are currentely (2009) 7:15, 12:00, 13:00 and 16:50 (an extra at 19:30 on fridays) monday to saturday, returning at 7:15, 9:15, 13:50, 17:10 (an extra at 19:15 on fridays). On Sundays and bank holidays the 7:15 changes to 8:15 and the bus back at 9:15 departs at 11:50. It costs $1400 each way and takes approximately two hours depending on how packed full of people it is and how much mail they have to deliver. It is also much quicker on the way back as it is going downhill! <br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0019_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|the Laguna del Alto and Cerro Peine]]<br /> Follow the dirt road another couple of km to the administrative entrance and then on to the camping (site with facilities). From here the trail is clearly sign-posted to the right on a large well-kept track of the Sendero de Chile. From here it's another couple of km to the first campamento (site without facilities). After the campsite the path turns into a small gully with a stream and back out the other side where a clearly sign path branches to the right to the Laguna del Alto. Taking this the path climbs approx. 3km with 600m of ascent out of the forest cover and onto the Plateau above. At one point it branches off to the left until it is almost horizontal with the slope but don't worry and keep following the path it turns back in on itself higher up. Once on the plateau the path spits in two. Take the marked path to the right. After about 1km of flat walking the path descends over a ridge and down 150m into the crater lake below. Significent amounts of can linger into December making the path hard to find but don't worry there are other arguably easier routes down to the Laguna. The actual path goes off to the right from the sign post a the top of the crater and comes back down to the left coming out on the bottom of the Laguna. from here it is also possible to climb Cerro Paine although this makes the day a long one and the winter equipment is required all the way into december. <br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0024_(Small).jpg|thumb|200px|left|A swim in the Laguna]]<br /> The banks of the lakes are a perfect spot for a quick break before ascending back up the way you came to the top of the crater. from the signpost at the top take the branching path to the right and not back the way you came. The path is obvious all the way as it makes it's away across the plateau, occasionally marked with cairns and paraellel lines of rocks (which seem a little like overkill). After about a km the path joins with the fork we ignored earlier and makes it's way along the lower left side of the plateau through volcanic rock formations. After 3 km the path come to Enladrillado, a flat rock plain which can be seen clearly from a good distance away. Much is made of the apparentely strange UFO lauchpad nature of this rock platform but what really impresses is the stunning views of Descabezado Grande (the Decapitated volcano) and Cerro Azul, the beautiful forests and valley surrounding them and the endless views of high snowcapped peaks streches down the backbone of the Andes. <br /> <br /> Once you've spent a sufficent amount of time soaking up the views take the clearly marked path to the right down off the plateau that you passed just before reaching Enladrillado. From here it's about 3km and 400m of decent down to the second of the campamento's a the base of the plateau. It's then another fairly flat time consuming 4km back to the first campamento and then out the way you came in. <br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0034_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Enladrillado with the view of Descabezado Grande and Cerro Azul ]] <br /> <br /> <br /> '''Estimated time''' <br /> <br /> It should take about an hour and a half to get from the gate to the first campamento. About 2 hours to the Laguna. 1.5 hours from the Laguna to Enladrillo. 1.5 back to the first campsite and another 1.5 to the gate making it roughly 8 hours in total (probably about 9 with decent sized breaks). <br /> <br /> == Recommendations ==<br /> <br /> - While this trek can be done in one exhausting day it is hard to see why you would want to unless you lived nearby. Instead there is plenty more to see in what is a beautiful national park. Doing this trek in one day from one of the campmentos at the bottom of the plateau is highly recomended (the first is less crowded) hiking in and out of the park on the days either side or hiking one of the numberous other trails in the park. <br /> -this trek can be done the other way round but this would involve doing the long boring walk along the valley at the start of the day and getting the best views at the begging rather than towards the end. <br /> -Camping at Laguna del Alto is now forbidden for fear of contaminating the Laguna. <br /> -It is also possible to climb Cerro Peine from the camping towards the entrance of the park and then continue on the trek from there.<br /> -Snow can hang around the sheltered laguna for a suprising long time so in November and April an ice axe is probably best if available and be flexiable in your plans. <br /> <br /> == Permits and Fees ==<br /> <br /> The park costs $1500 per day <br /> <br /> == Maps ==<br /> <br /> Trekking Chile's (who produce surely what are the best maps available in Chile ) Condor Circuit map cover the whole of this area. the map is a dream for it's accuracy, clarity and detail however it is more tailed towards GPS users. It is also not imune to errors as it claims you can camp at Laguna del Alto which is now forbidden and does not contain the path up Cerro Peine from the camping. The only alternative would be a IGM map.</div>

Much is made of the apparentely strange UFO lauchpad nature of this rock platform but what really impresses is the stunning views of Descabezado Grande (the Decapitated volcano) and Cerro Azul, the beautiful forests and valley surrounding them and the endless views of high snowcapped peaks streches down the backbone of the Andes. <br /> <br /> Once you've spent a sufficent amount of time soaking up the views take the clearly marked path to the right down off the plateau that you passed just before reaching Enladrillado. From here it's about 3km and 400m of decent down to the second of the campamento's a the base of the plateau. It's then another fairly flat time consuming 4km back to the first campamento and then out the way you came in. <br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0034_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Enladrillado with the view of Descabezado Grande and Cerro Azul ]] <br /> '''Estimated time''' <br /> <br /> It should take about an hour and a half to get from the gate to the first campamento. About 2 hours to the Laguna. 1.5 hours from the Laguna to Enladrillo. 1.5 back to the first campsite and another 1.5 to the gate making it roughly 8 hours in total (probably about 9 with decent sized breaks). <br /> <br /> == Recommendations ==<br /> <br /> - While this trek can be done in one exhausting day it is hard to see why you would want to unless you lived nearby. Instead there is plenty more to see in what is a beautiful national park. Doing this trek in one day from one of the campmentos at the bottom of the plateau is highly recomended (the first is less crowded) hiking in and out of the park on the days either side or hiking one of the numberous other trails in the park. <br /> -this trek can be done the other way round but this would involve doing the long boring walk along the valley at the start of the day and getting the best views at the begging rather than towards the end. <br /> -Camping at Laguna del Alto is now forbidden for fear of contaminating the Laguna. <br /> -It is also possible to climb Cerro Peine from the camping towards the entrance of the park and then continue on the trek from there.<br /> -Snow can hang around the sheltered laguna for a suprising long time so in November and April an ice axe is probably best if available and be flexiable in your plans. <br /> <br /> == Permits and Fees ==<br /> <br /> The park costs $1500 per day <br /> <br /> == Maps ==<br /> <br /> Trekking Chile's (who produce surely what are the best maps available in Chile ) Condor Circuit map cover the whole of this area. the map is a dream for it's accuracy, clarity and detail however it is more tailed towards GPS users. It is also not imune to errors as it claims you can camp at Laguna del Alto which is now forbidden and does not contain the path up Cerro Peine from the camping. The only alternative would be a IGM map.</div>

<p>Sam Collins: </p> <hr /> <div>{{trekking Chile}}<br /> <br /> == Season ==<br /> October to April<br /> <br /> {{Access Granizo}}<br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> The route from the entrance of the park is well sign-posted and very easy to follow (you also get a map). It is also surprisingly crowded for a Chilean hiking trail. The lower sections are of quite interesting forest at a reasonable gradient.

<p>Sam Collins: </p> <hr /> <div>An attractive more wild tour offering a perfect alternative to the other far more popular areas of the park. it is also good conditioning before taking on the circuit or other longer treks in the park. <br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0098_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Part of the view from Mirador Zapata with glacier and lago Pingo in the distance ]]<br /> == Season ==<br /> October to April<br /> <br /> == Access ==<br /> <br /> '''By Car''' <br /> <br /> Drive out of the Administration at Rio Serrano and take the first left then the first right onto a good quality gravel road. Drive to the end at Hostal Lago Grey <br /> <br /> '''By public transport''' <br /> <br /> You can radio in a transfer from the administration but these cost a hefty $9000 per person. If there is only a few of you hitch hiking is a better option as the road is well used. Hiking it is really not recommended as it's 17km of fairly boring road walking. <br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0092 (Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Pingo falls]]<br /> A sign post from the car park to campmento Pingo directs you down the well marked trail with regular orange sign posts. The route to Pingo is an easy 3km in a sheltered valley. At Pingo there is a camp ground, an abandoned refugio and good views of Cerro Paine Grande. Keep following the trail as it follows the river before ascending into beech forest. There is a very short side to trip to the right of the path before a bridge to Cascada salto (waterfall waterfall!?) which is well worth exploring. After this the trail climbs roughly 200m into thick attractive forest which gets a little dull after a while. The trail continues bumpily along before descending to reach the turn off for Pingo falls 7km from campamento Pingo. Here you can take another worthwhile 1km diversion to the noisy Pingo falls where the river thunders down over the rocks. Once back on the trail it's a fairly flat further 2.5km to campamento Zapata on a picturesque bend in the river (the Refugio was burnt down a few years ago no matter what your map and the one in the administration! says). <br /> <br /> The campsite is in a beautiful grassy clearing with a fine view of the Paine massif behind. The nicest pitches are in a little alcove of trees close to the river. From the campsite it's a quick and easy 3km to mirador Zapata from where you can get fantastic views over the whole valley and of Lago and glacier Pingo in the distance. Since this is only a short walk from the campsite there are plenty of further options to occupy you if you stay at the campsite for the whole day. The first and most obvious is to descend to the laguna below and round to the left. If you don't mind getting wet and the waters are low you can get around the two inlets to the laguna and up onto the South Patagonia Ice Field beyond or up Cerro Zapata, a none technical peak of 1533m (wind permitting). This is best done in late summer when the rivers will be lower. Another option is to follow the path from just before the mirador when it branches. A faint trail leads along the side of the valley and then descends to the remote Laguna Los Tres. [[Archivo:RIMG0121_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|left|Campamento Zapata]]From here you can cross the river higher up (getting a little wet) where it is marked by a cairn and then follow the cairns along and then up to a get views over the ice field next to small glacial lagunas with chunks of ice floating in them. Another option if you have plenty of time and experience is a wilderness route down to Lago Tyndall and back to the Lago Grey road (further information on these options taken from ''Chile and Argentina'' Bradt Trekking Guide) <br /> <br /> Finally the route to Lago and glacier Pingo no longer exists (despite being labelled on most maps) as a bridge on the path kept being washed away but for experienced navigators who don't mind getting wet it should still be possible when the rivers are at their lowest (although the path from the campsite is already overgrown and unclear). Go back to Lago Grey the way you came. <br /> <br /> '''Estimated time''' <br /> <br /> It takes 3-4 hours to get from Lago Grey to Zapata and another 45 minutes to an hour to get to the mirador, back is roughly the same times as the amount of accent is similar. <br /> <br /> <br /> == Maps ==<br /> <br /> Embrassingly for Chilean pride the best map of Torres Del Paine, images of which you can't escape in Chilean culture and tourism, is an Argentine one. Zaiger and Urrupty produce a clear and more importnately up-to-date map of the park complete with technical and some wilderness routes. Maps available in hiking and tourist shops in Chile (e.g. JLM) are universally out of date marking refugios and paths where they no longer exist. They often also disagree on the lengths of routes. The map given to you at the entrance of the park is preferable simply because it is up to date however it is on a large scale, very simple and with few contour markings. given the general confusion surrounding the lenghts of route it is large to tell whether these are accurate. <br /> <br /> == Permits and Fees ==<br /> Only what the Park charges $4000 for Chileans $15000 for Gringos <br /> <br /> == Recommendations ==<br /> -Given the stunning views from the mirador and the fairly boring route to get from Pingo to Zapata it really is only worth doing this walk if you go all the way to the mirador. While the walk can be done in a day it would be a long and very strenuous one. Another option is to camp at Pingo but even then it's a long day hike. The best option is to camp at Zapata, a beautiful campsite that you will probably have to yourselves, and then do the mirador and back to Pingo the second day. The three day option would be do one of the longer day options from Zapata. <br /> <br /> -You will more than likely be doing this trek before or after a longer one in the central area of the park. To avoid lugging vast amounts of unnecessary food around you can store food and whatever else you might want to at the administration for without charge. <br /> <br /> -Unlike the majority of campsites in the rest of the park there are no facilities at Zapata and are little visited, so for this hike you will have to be better prepared for camping in the wilderness whatever the weather. Any of the treks beyond mirador zapata also require a high level of skill and experience.</div>

<p>Sam Collins: </p> <hr /> <div>An attractive more wild tour offering a perfect alternative to the other far more popular areas of the park. it is also good conditioning before taking on the circuit or other longer treks in the park. <br /> <br /> == Season ==<br /> October to April<br /> <br /> == Access ==<br /> <br /> '''By Car''' <br /> <br /> Drive out of the Administration at Rio Serrano and take the first left then the first right onto a good quality gravel road. Drive to the end at Hostal Lago Grey <br /> <br /> '''By public transport''' <br /> <br /> You can radio in a transfer from the administration but these cost a hefty $9000 per person. If there is only a few of you hitch hiking is a better option as the road is well used. Hiking it is really not recommended as it's 17km of fairly boring road walking. <br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0092 (Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Pingo falls]]<br /> A sign post from the car park to campmento Pingo directs you down the well marked trail with regular orange sign posts. The route to Pingo is an easy 3km in a sheltered valley. At Pingo there is a camp ground, an abandoned refugio and good views of Cerro Paine Grande. Keep following the trail as it follows the river before ascending into beech forest. There is a very short side to trip to the right of the path before a bridge to Cascada salto (waterfall waterfall!?) which is well worth exploring. After this the trail climbs roughly 200m into thick attractive forest which gets a little dull after a while. The trail continues bumpily along before descending to reach the turn off for Pingo falls 7km from campamento Pingo. Here you can take another worthwhile 1km diversion to the noisy Pingo falls where the river thunders down over the rocks. Once back on the trail it's a fairly flat further 2.5km to campamento Zapata on a picturesque bend in the river (the Refugio was burnt down a few years ago no matter what your map and the one in the administration! says). The campsite is in a beautiful grassy clearing with a fine view of the Paine massif behind. The nicest pitches are in a little alcove of trees close to the river. From the campsite it's a quick and easy 3km to mirador Zapata from where you can get fantastic views over the whole valley and of Lago and glacier Pingo in the distance. Since this is only a short walk from the campsite there are plenty of further options to occupy you if you stay at the campsite for the whole day. The first and most obvious is to descend to the laguna below and round to the left. If you don't mind getting wet and the waters are low you can get around the two inlets to the laguna and up onto the South Patagonia Ice Field beyond or up Cerro Zapata, a none technical peak of 1533m (wind permitting). This is best done in late summer when the rivers will be lower. Another option is to follow the path from just before the mirador when it branches. A faint trail leads along the side of the valley and then descends to the remote Laguna Los Tres. [[Archivo:RIMG0121_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|left|Campamento Zapata]]From here you can cross the river higher up (getting a little wet) where it is marked by a cairn and then follow the cairns along and then up to a get views over the ice field next to small glacial lagunas with chunks of ice floating in them. Another option if you have plenty of time and experience is a wilderness route down to Lago Tyndall and back to the Lago Grey road (further information on these options taken from ''Chile and Argentina'' Bradt Trekking Guide) Finally the route to Lago and glacier Pingo no longer exists (despite being labelled on most maps) as a bridge on the path kept being washed away but for experienced navigators who don't mind getting wet it should still be possible when the rivers are at their lowest (although the path from the campsite is already overgrown and unclear). Go back to Lago Grey the way you came. <br /> <br /> '''Estimated time''' <br /> <br /> It takes 3-4 hours to get from Lago Grey to Zapata and another 45 minutes to an hour to get to the mirador, back is roughly the same times as the amount of accent is similar. <br /> <br /> <br /> == Maps ==<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0098_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|]]<br /> Embrassingly for Chilean pride the best map of Torres Del Paine, images of which you can't escape in Chilean culture and tourism, is an Argentine one. Zaiger and Urrupty produce a clear and more importnately up-to-date map of the park complete with technical and some wilderness routes. Maps available in hiking and tourist shops in Chile (e.g. JLM) are universally out of date marking refugios and paths where they no longer exist. They often also disagree on the lengths of routes. The map given to you at the entrance of the park is preferable simply because it is up to date however it is on a large scale, very simple and with few contour markings. given the general confusion surrounding the lenghts of route it is large to tell whether these are accurate. <br /> <br /> == Permits and Fees ==<br /> Only what the Park charges $4000 for Chileans $15000 for Gringos <br /> <br /> == Recommendations ==<br /> -Given the stunning views from the mirador and the fairly boring route to get from Pingo to Zapata it really is only worth doing this walk if you go all the way to the mirador. While the walk can be done in a day it would be a long and very strenuous one. Another option is to camp at Pingo but even then it's a long day hike. The best option is to camp at Zapata, a beautiful campsite that you will probably have to yourselves, and then do the mirador and back to Pingo the second day. The three day option would be do one of the longer day options from Zapata. <br /> <br /> -You will more than likely be doing this trek before or after a longer one in the central area of the park. To avoid lugging vast amounts of unnecessary food around you can store food and whatever else you might want to at the administration for without charge. <br /> <br /> -Unlike the majority of campsites in the rest of the park there are no facilities at Zapata and are little visited, so for this hike you will have to be better prepared for camping in the wilderness whatever the weather. Any of the treks beyond mirador zapata also require a high level of skill and experience.</div>

If there is only a few of you hitch hiking is a better option as the road is well used. Hiking it is really not recommended as it's 17km of fairly boring road walking. <br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> [[Archivo:RIMG0121_(Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|]][[Archivo:RIMG0092 (Medium).jpg|thumb|250px|right|Pingo falls]]<br /> A sign post from the car park to campmento Pingo directs you down the well marked trail with regular orange sign posts. The route to Pingo is an easy 3km in a sheltered valley. At Pingo there is a camp ground, an abandoned refugio and good views of Cerro Paine Grande. Keep following the trail as it follows the river before ascending into beech forest. There is a very short side to trip to the right of the path before a bridge to Cascada salto (waterfall waterfall!?) which is well worth exploring. After this the trail climbs roughly 200m into thick attractive forest which gets a little dull after a while. The trail continues bumpily along before descending to reach the turn off for Pingo falls 7km from campamento Pingo. Here you can take another worthwhile 1km diversion to the noisy Pingo falls where the river thunders down over the rocks. Once back on the trail it's a fairly flat further 2.5km to campamento Zapata on a picturesque bend in the river (the Refugio was burnt down a few years ago no matter what your map and the one in the administration! says). The campsite is in a beautiful grassy clearing with a fine view of the Paine massif behind. The nicest pitches are in a little alcove of trees close to the river. From the campsite it's a quick and easy 3km to mirador Zapata from where you can get fantastic views over the whole valley and of Lago and glacier Pingo in the distance. Since this is only a short walk from the campsite there are plenty of further options to occupy you if you stay at the campsite for the whole day. The first and most obvious is to descend to the laguna below and round to the left. If you don't mind getting wet and the waters are low you can get around the two inlets to the laguna and up onto the South Patagonia Ice Field beyond or up Cerro Zapata, a none technical peak of 1533m (wind permitting). This is best done in late summer when the rivers will be lower. Another option is to follow the path from just before the mirador when it branches. A faint trail leads along the side of the valley and then descends to the remote Laguna Los Tres. From here you can cross the river higher up (getting a little wet) where it is marked by a cairn and then follow the cairns along and then up to a get views over the ice field next to small glacial lagunas with chunks of ice floating in them. Another option if you have plenty of time and experience is a wilderness route down to Lago Tyndall and back to the Lago Grey road (further information on these options taken from ''Chile and Argentina'' Bradt Trekking Guide) Finally the route to Lago and glacier Pingo no longer exists (despite being labelled on most maps) as a bridge on the path kept being washed away but for experienced navigators who don't mind getting wet it should still be possible when the rivers are at their lowest (although the path from the campsite is already overgrown and unclear). Go back to Lago Grey the way you came. <br /> <br /> '''Estimated time''' <br /> <br /> It takes 3-4 hours to get from Lago Grey to Zapata and another 45 minutes to an hour to get to the mirador, back is roughly the same times as the amount of accent is similar. <br /> <br /> <br /> == Maps ==<br /> <br /> Embrassingly for Chilean pride the best map of Torres Del Paine, images of which you can't escape in Chilean culture and tourism, is an Argentine one. Zaiger and Urrupty produce a clear and more importnately up-to-date map of the park complete with technical and some wilderness routes. Maps available in hiking and tourist shops in Chile (e.g. JLM) are universally out of date marking refugios and paths where they no longer exist. They often also disagree on the lengths of routes. The map given to you at the entrance of the park is preferable simply because it is up to date however it is on a large scale, very simple and with few contour markings. given the general confusion surrounding the lenghts of route it is large to tell whether these are accurate. <br /> <br /> == Permits and Fees ==<br /> Only what the Park charges $4000 for Chileans $15000 for Gringos <br /> <br /> == Recommendations ==<br /> -Given the stunning views from the mirador and the fairly boring route to get from Pingo to Zapata it really is only worth doing this walk if you go all the way to the mirador. While the walk can be done in a day it would be a long and very strenuous one. Another option is to camp at Pingo but even then it's a long day hike. The best option is to camp at Zapata, a beautiful campsite that you will probably have to yourselves, and then do the mirador and back to Pingo the second day. The three day option would be do one of the longer day options from Zapata. <br /> <br /> -You will more than likely be doing this trek before or after a longer one in the central area of the park. To avoid lugging vast amounts of unnecessary food around you can store food and whatever else you might want to at the administration for without charge. <br /> <br /> -Unlike the majority of campsites in the rest of the park there are no facilities at Zapata and are little visited, so for this hike you will have to be better prepared for camping in the wilderness whatever the weather. Any of the treks beyond mirador zapata also require a high level of skill and experience.</div>

The trail continues bumpily along before descending to reach the turn off for Pingo falls 7km from campamento Pingo. Here you can take another worthwhile 1km diversion to the noisy Pingo falls where the river thunders down over the rocks. Once back on the trail it's a fairly flat further 2.5km to campamento Zapata on a picturesque bend in the river (the Refugio was burnt down a few years ago no matter what your map and the one in the administration! says). The campsite is in a beautiful grassy clearing with a fine view of the Paine massif behind. The nicest pitches are in a little alcove of trees close to the river. From the campsite it's a quick and easy 3km to mirador Zapata from where you can get fantastic views over the whole valley and of Lago and glacier Pingo in the distance. Since this is only a short walk from the campsite there are plenty of further options to occupy you if you stay at the campsite for the whole day. The first and most obvious is to descend to the laguna below and round to the left. If you don't mind getting wet and the waters are low you can get around the two inlets to the laguna and up onto the South Patagonia Ice Field beyond or up Cerro Zapata, a none technical peak of 1533m (wind permitting). This is best done in late summer when the rivers will be lower. Another option is to follow the path from just before the mirador when it branches. A faint trail leads along the side of the valley and then descends to the remote Laguna Los Tres. From here you can cross the river higher up (getting a little wet) where it is marked by a cairn and then follow the cairns along and then up to a get views over the ice field next to small glacial lagunas with chunks of ice floating in them. Another option if you have plenty of time and experience is a wilderness route down to Lago Tyndall and back to the Lago Grey road (further information on these options taken from ''Chile and Argentina'' Bradt Trekking Guide) Finally the route to Lago and glacier Pingo no longer exists (despite being labelled on most maps) as a bridge on the path kept being washed away but for experienced navigators who don't mind getting wet it should still be possible when the rivers are at their lowest (although the path from the campsite is already overgrown and unclear). Go back to Lago Grey the way you came. <br /> <br /> '''Estimated time''' <br /> <br /> It takes 3-4 hours to get from Lago Grey to Zapata and another 45 minutes to an hour to get to the mirador, back is roughly the same times as the amount of accent is similar. <br /> <br /> <br /> == Maps ==<br /> <br /> Embrassingly for Chilean pride the best map of Torres Del Paine, images of which you can't escape in Chilean culture and tourism, is an Argentine one. Zaiger and Urrupty produce a clear and more importnately up-to-date map of the park complete with technical and some wilderness routes. Maps available in hiking and tourist shops in Chile (e.g. JLM) are universally out of date marking refugios and paths where they no longer exist. They often also disagree on the lengths of routes. The map given to you at the entrance of the park is preferable simply because it is up to date however it is on a large scale, very simple and with few contour markings. given the general confusion surrounding the lenghts of route it is large to tell whether these are accurate. <br /> <br /> == Permits and Fees ==<br /> Only what the Park charges $4000 for Chileans $15000 for Gringos <br /> <br /> == Recommendations ==<br /> -Given the stunning views from the mirador and the fairly boring route to get from Pingo to Zapata it really is only worth doing this walk if you go all the way to the mirador. While the walk can be done in a day it would be a long and very strenuous one. Another option is to camp at Pingo but even then it's a long day hike. The best option is to camp at Zapata, a beautiful campsite that you will probably have to yourselves, and then do the mirador and back to Pingo the second day. The three day option would be do one of the longer day options from Zapata. <br /> <br /> -You will more than likely be doing this trek before or after a longer one in the central area of the park. To avoid lugging vast amounts of unnecessary food around you can store food and whatever else you might want to at the administration for without charge. <br /> <br /> -Unlike the majority of campsites in the rest of the park there are no facilities at Zapata and are little visited, so for this hike you will have to be better prepared for camping in the wilderness whatever the weather. Any of the treks beyond mirador zapata also require a high level of skill and experience.</div>

<p>Sam Collins: </p> <hr /> <div>An attractive more wild tour offering a perfect alternative to the other far more popular areas of the park. it is also good conditioning before taking on the circuit or other longer treks in the park. <br /> <br /> == Season ==<br /> October to April<br /> <br /> == Access ==<br /> <br /> '''By Car''' <br /> <br /> Drive out of the Administration at Rio Serrano and take the first left then the first right onto a good quality gravel road. Drive to the end at Hostal Lago Grey <br /> <br /> '''By public transport''' <br /> <br /> You can radio in a transfer from the administration but these cost a hefty $9000 per person. If there is only a few of you hitch hiking is a better option as the road is well used. Hiking it is really not recommended as its 17km of fairly boring road walking. <br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> <br /> A sign post from the car park to campmento Pingo directs you down the well marked trail with regular orange sign posts. The route to Pingo is an easy 3km in a sheltered valley. At Pingo there is a camp ground, an abandoned refugio and good views of Cerro Paine Grande. Keep following the trail as it follows the river before ascending into beech forest. There is a very short side to trip to the right of the path before a bridge to Cascada salto (waterfall waterfall!?) which is well worth exploring. After this the trail climbs roughly 200m into thick attractive forest which gets a little dull after a while.

<p>Sam Collins: </p> <hr /> <div>An attractive more wild tour offering a perfect alternative to the other far more popular areas of the park. it is also good conditioning before taking on the circuit or other longer treks in the park. <br /> <br /> == Season ==<br /> October to April<br /> <br /> == Access ==<br /> <br /> '''By Car''' <br /> <br /> Drive out of the Administration at Rio Serrano and take the first left then the first right onto a good quality gravel road. Drive to the end at Hostal Lago Grey <br /> <br /> '''By public transport''' <br /> <br /> You can radio in a transfer from the administration but these cost a hefty $9000 per person. If there is only a few of you hitch hiking is a better option as the road is well used. Hiking it is really not recommended as its 17km of fairly boring road walking. <br /> <br /> == The Route ==<br /> <br /> A sign post from the car park to campmento Pingo directs you down the well marked trail with regular orange sign posts. The route to Pingo is an easy 3km in a sheltered valley. At Pingo there is a camp ground, an abandoned refugio and good views of Cerro Paine Grande. Keep following the trail as it follows the river before ascending into beech forest. There is a very short side to trip to the right of the path before a bridge to Cascada salto (waterfall waterfall!?) which is well worth exploring. After this the trail climbs roughly 200m into thick attractive forest which gets a little dull after a while. The trail continues bumpily along before descending to reach the turn off for Pingo falls 7km from campamento Pingo. Here you can take another worthwhile 1km diversion to the noisy Pingo falls where the river thunders down over the rocks. Once back on the trail it's a fairly flat further 2.5km to campamento Zapata on a picturesque bend in the river (the Refugio was burnt down a few years ago no matter what your map and the one in the administration! says). The campsite is in a beautiful grassy clearing with a fine view of the Paine massif behind. The nicest pitches are in a little alcove of trees close to the river. From the campsite it's a quick and easy 3km to mirador Zapata from where you can get fantastic views over the whole valley and of Lago and glacier Pingo in the distance. Since this is only a short walk from the campsite there are plenty of further options to occupy you if you stay at the campsite for the whole day. The first and most obvious is to descend to the laguna below and round to the left. If you don't mind getting wet and the waters are low you can get around the two inlets to the laguna and up onto the South Patagonia Ice Field beyond or up Cerro Zapata, a none technical peak of 1533m (wind permitting). This is best done in late summer when the rivers will be lower. Another option is to follow the path from just before the mirador when it branches. A faint trail leads along the side of the valley and then descends to the remote Laguna Los Tres. From here you can cross the river higher up (getting a little wet) where it is marked by a cairn and then follow the cairns along and then up to a get views over the ice field next to small glacial lagunas with chunks of ice floating in them. Another option if you have plenty of time and experience is a wilderness route down to Lago Tyndall and back to the Lago Grey road. Finally the route to Lago and glacier Pingo no longer exists (despite being labelled on most maps) as a bridge on the path kept being washed away but for experienced navigators who don't mind getting wet it should still be possible when the rivers are at their lowest (although the path from the campsite is already overgrown and unclear). Go back to Lago Grey the way you came. <br /> <br /> '''Estimated time''' <br /> <br /> It takes 3-4 hours to get from Lago Grey to Zapata and another 45 minutes to an hour to get to the mirador, back is roughly the same times as the amount of accent is similar. <br /> <br /> == Permits and Fees ==<br /> Only what the Park charges $4000 for Chileans $15000 for Gringo's <br /> <br /> == Recommendations ==<br /> -Given the stunning views from the mirador and the fairly boring route to get from Pingo to Zapata it really is only worth doing this walk if you go all the way to the mirador. While the walk can be done in a day it would be a long and very strenuous one. Another option is to camp at Pingo but even then it's a long day hike. The best option is to camp at Zapata, a beautiful campsite that you will probably have to yourselves, and then do the mirador and back to Pingo the second day. The three day option would be do one of the longer day options from Zapata. <br /> <br /> -You will more than likely be doing this trek before or after a longer one in the central area of the park. To avoid lugging vast amounts of unnecessary food around you can store food and whatever else you might want to at the administration for without charge. <br /> <br /> -Unlike the majority of campsites in the rest of the park there are no facilities at Zapata and are little visited, so for this hike you will have to be better prepared for camping in the wilderness whatever the weather. Any of the treks beyond mirador zapata also require a high level of skill and experience.</div>
