Patagonia National Park: Private Half-Day Wildlife Trek

Explore the pristine trails of Patagonia National Park on a private guided trek, encountering pumas, huemul deer, condors, and sweeping steppe vistas. Restored ranchlands reborn as wilderness make this one of conservation's greatest triumphs.

What to expect

Your private guide collects you at the pier and transfers you to Patagonia National Park's less-visited northern sectors. Trek along trails flanked by lenga beech forest and open steppe, pausing for birdwatching at viewpoints that reward with panoramas of the Cochrane River valley. Your guide shares the remarkable rewilding story — former cattle estancia transformed back to wilderness by Tompkins Conservation. A packed gourmet picnic in the wild is the perfect finale before returning to port.
