    What's the story

    Patagonia, a region shared between Argentina and Chile, attracts trekkers globally.

    The Chilean side, with its sprawling glaciers, rugged mountains, and deep blue fjords, offers unparalleled adventure.

    This guide focuses on trekking through Chile's Patagonian fjords - a journey across some of Earth's most breathtaking landscapes, presenting a unique adventure in a region unmatched in natural beauty.

    Preparation

    Planning your trek: Where to start

    Before embarking on your trek through Patagonia's fjords, it's crucial to plan.

    The best time to visit is between November and early March, when the weather is milder.

    You'll need sturdy hiking boots, layers for changing weather conditions, and camping gear if you plan to stay overnight in the parks.

    Local tour operators offer guided treks that range from day hikes to multi-day adventures.
