Go on one of our superb Patagonia trekking holidays and explore this beautiful region, that crosses Argentina and Chile, with experienced guides who truly know the lie of the land.

At Himalayan Kingdoms we offer several Patagonia trekking trips that allow you to fully explore this stunning part of the world. In Chile you can trek in the Torres del Paine National Park, getting close-up views of the iconic vertical rock towers that give the park its name. You will also walk through meadows deep in wild flowers to view vast glaciers and turquoise lakes. In Argentina, we travel in and around the World Heritage Los Glaciares National Park; walking to the base camps of Cerro Torre and Mount Fitz Roy, trekking across untamed country rich in wildlife, hiking on top of glaciers, riding gentle Criollo horses and viewing the immense Perito Moreno Glacier.

Set amongst mountains and glaciers the accommodation ranges from quality camping to comfortable lodges, and from traditional estancias to superb luxury lodges where the quality of cuisine and service is second to none. You will also enjoy time in the vibrant Latin cities of either Santiago or Buenos Aires.

Whichever trip you choose, our Patagonia trekking holidays immerse you in the traditions, culture and landscape of this distant place and give you a truly unforgettable experience.

It offers daily sights of glaciers, rushing rios, granite towers, snow-clad summits and turquoise lakes whilst walking through meadows, forest and moraine. The trek is at low altitude and is fully guided and supported although you need to carry your own clothing, sleeping bag and toiletries.
