Description
Begin your day in the stillness of the pre-dawn hush. Get picked up by your guide and driver one hour before sunrise to be transported to the trailhead. Using headlamps to guide you, hike through the early morning darkness. Bask in the sounds of the sleepy forest as you climb upwards, surrounded by the predawn calls of songbirds and the whisper of the breeze.
Climb high above the city, reaching your picnic spot as the sun crests over Tierra del Fuego. Drink a hot cup of coffee, enjoy a delicious breakfast, and watch sunlight spread over the Strait of Magellan as the world wakes up around you.
After your meal, take the long way down, undulating through the quiet morning forest to enjoy more moments of solitude, and the clear quality of the early morning light as it sweeps through the green branches of the trees. Return to the city to be dropped off by your guide at your destination of choice and enjoy the rest of your day in Punta Arenas.
