1/2 Day Horse Ride (3-4 Hours)
$57.000 pesos per person with snack / Plus transfer to/from Estancia
Photo opportunities abound while riding on the incredible Estancia Laguna Amarga, on the border of Torres del Paine National Park. Enjoy an up-close view of the Chilean Flamingo that inhabits Bitter Lagoon and the Andean Condor, as you marvel at the views of the Towers. The ride starts out by reaching a lookout point high above the estancia, from which you can gaze down at the snaking rivers, topaz lakes and awe inspiring peaks of the Torres del Paine.
For those not interested in mountainside riding, you may venture around Laguna Amarga (Bitter Lagoon), which is the only saltwater lake in the region. The salt that accumulates along the black sand beaches of the lake, gives the surreal impression of snow in summer. You will return to the estancia house by way of a small lookout, standing adjacent to the Towers.
Transfer to Estancia Laguna Amarga, can be arranged by:
Private transportation
Public bus, which departs from Pto. Natales at 07:30 am., returning from Laguna Amarga at 14:00 and 21:00.
Full Day History Ride (5-6 Hours)
$69.000 pesos per person with snack / Plus transfer to/from Estancia
Discover the beauty and immensity of Torres del Paine, without fighting the crowds, on this adventurous, full day horse ride. Enjoy privileged views of the Park, as you visit a private, high mountain lake, and ancient cave paintings. Ride among guanacos, Ñandu, condor and other flora and fauna that make the estancia their home. Learn about the natural and anthropological history of the area as you follow the trail of the first pioneers, through Patagonia.
You do not need to be an experienced horseperson to enjoy this ride, though if capable, you may delight in a gallop across grassy meadows. Depending on the season, there is the possibility of encountering springs first born, as oftentimes we catch the birth of a baby guanaco, or find a large nest with Ñandu eggs!
