Puerto Natales: Full Day Torres del Paine + Milodon Cave

4.8 (366 verified reviews)

About This Experience

A full panoramic loop of Torres del Paine plus the Milodon Cave, at one of the lowest prices among the well-reviewed day tours. A shared bus collects you from your accommodation in Puerto Natales and heads into the park past lakes, wind-twisted forest and open steppe.

The itinerary is well defined: a photo stop at Lago Sarmiento with the towers on the horizon, then Lake Nordenskjöld and Lake Pehoé, about an hour at Grey Lake including a short walk on the beach towards the glacier, the Cuernos viewpoint, and the 40-minute round-trip walk to the Salto Grande waterfall. On the way back you spend about an hour at the Milodon Cave Natural Monument with a guided visit inside the main cavern.

You are back in Puerto Natales around 17:30. Bring snacks and water, as food is not included. The operator notes the order of stops can be reversed, starting at the cave and ending at Laguna Amarga.
