Torres del Paine W Trek: Five Days Across Patagonia

Torres del Paine's W Trek crosses Chilean Patagonia in five days and about 70 kilometres, linking Base Torres, the French Valley, and Grey Glacier. The route combines long hiking days, rocky climbs, changing weather, and a booking system that rewards planning months ahead. 1

The trail is linear, so buses and a catamaran help connect the route's ends. The W is famous because one trek brings together the granite towers, the Cuernos del Paine, French Valley viewpoints, and Grey Glacier in one of Patagonia's defining landscapes. 12

Real trail imagery in the film comes from the official Chile Travel W Trek guide and its featured landscape photographs.
