The W Circuit is one of the most popular routes among visitors to Torres del Paine National Park. In this amazing journey through the heart of Patagonia you can immerse yourself in an adventure that includes glimpses of the iconic Los Cuernos peaks, Valle del Francés, Paine Grande peak, Grey Glacier, and, of course, the Torres del Paine base. Here we’ll clear up any questions you might have about the W Circuit and your stay at Hotel Las Torres, where you’ll receive the best rest and attention as you begin this odyssey.
How many days does the hotel’s W Circuit program include?
This program is designed so that you can visit the main attractions that the W Circuit has to offer with the peace of mind and time to properly enjoy them. This package includes a stay of 5 days and 4 nights, which is the enough time to comfortably visit each of the tour’s main points.
What is the itinerary?
We’ll be waiting for you on Day 1 at any of the three Las Torres Patagonia transfer meeting points: either in Punta Arenas, Puerto Natales, or in Calafate. If you are coming from Punta Arenas, you can stop at Estancia Cerro Negro, where we will welcome you with a traditional Patagonian asado, or barbecue, in addition to a shearing demonstration and a sheep herding exhibition led by our sweet dog Mate, who is sure to steal your heart. Here you can visit our museum house, which is a chance to travel back in time and see how people lived in the Magallanes region at the beginning of the 19th century. At the end of your first day in Patagonia, you’ll arrive at the hotel, where you can rest and prepare for your next outdoor adventure.
The following days are divided as follows: Day 2, a tour of the Torres Base; Day 3, a tour of the Valle del Francés, or French Valley; and on Day 4, a tour of the glacier at Mirador Grey lookout point.

What places will we visit?
On this tour, you will get to experience Los Cuernos, or ‘the horns’—a trio of mountain peaks known for being one of the most beautiful geological formations to be found in the park. The different types of rock that form these peaks create a striking and multicolored contrast.
In Valle del Francés you will get to see one of the best views in the whole park. To the west you can see the towers of Los Cuernos, known as Espada, Hoja, and Máscara (or ‘Sword’, ‘Leaf’, and ‘Mask’). To the east you will be accompanied by the French Glacier, which hangs over Paine Grande, and to the north you can see the jagged peaks of Fortaleza and Aleta de Tiburón (‘Fortress’ and ‘Shark’s fin’).
With its four summits, Paine Grande is recognized as one of the most beautiful geological formations in the world, and is one of the highest mountains in the Paine mountain range.
On this tour you will also get to see of one of the most impressive frozen wonders of the park: Grey Glacier, the largest ice mass you will find in Torres del Paine.
No trip to Torres del Paine is complete without a visit to the granite towers that give the park its name, the great Base Torres lookout point.

Not included in the Hotel’s W Circuit program are premium beverages, such as wine, beer, or distilled beverages, as mentioned above. Also, not included is transportation out of hours, tips, laundry services, travel insurance, or other services not mentioned on our website.
