We will pick you up at your accommodation and depart from Puerto Natales for Torres del Paine National Park via Route 9.
After approximately an hour and a half of travel, in the vicinity of the park, we will establish contact with our trackers, who will indicate the meeting point where we will join them, based on their patrols and search criteria. Analyzing the movements of the guanaco herds, the presence of carrion birds in the sky, and knowledge of the territories and biological corridors established and used by pumas are important data, which, combined with the experience of our team, are essential for establishing the route through the park's interior routes.
Our guide will give an induction briefing regarding the itinerary to follow, safety and behavior during possible sightings, before boarding the vehicle again to begin our excursion. Daily excursions last 6 to 8 hours, where we will visit attractive scenic viewpoints along our route and if we are certain of sighting a puma, we will stop for short walks looking for a good observation angle, always from according to the travel rules defined by the park authorities and assisted by our team.
While it's still very early, we'll take advantage of the hours when the puma is most active, exploring the southeastern sectors of the park between the Laguna Amarga Gate and Nordenskjöld Lake. Enjoy spectacular views of Sarmiento Lake and the Paine Massif. We'll capture wonderful scenic and wildlife photographs while patrolling the puma's usual hunting areas, with opportunities to make eye contact. During these walks, our guide will describe the landscape we observe, including geology, flora, fauna, and other interesting aspects.
We have scheduled a morning and afternoon puma-watching session for each day. The time between the sessions coincides with the lowest puma activity. We'll respect their rest period, and our guide will choose a good spot for lunch (a box lunch). After resting, we can explore the surrounding area and take excellent photographs of the most iconic views of the Paine Massif. Around 2:30 p.m., we'll board our vehicle to repeat the tracking routine, returning to where we closed our morning session or heading to another likely sighting site.

We'll pick you up and head to the park. Our guide will present the day's plan based on our prior contact with our tracker. We'll head to the designated meeting point and begin our exploration aboard our vehicle. The variables used to determine the starting point of our excursion will depend on the previous day's experience. We may repeat the search sites or try other ones to improve our chances. We must remember that pumas are very active at dusk, patrolling their territory in search of prey, and they often travel long distances at night. We'll be able to appreciate and photograph abundant birdlife while traveling overlooking magnificent landscapes.
After lunch (a box lunch) and a well-deserved rest, we'll continue our afternoon excursion, following our initial plan or modifying our itinerary as appropriate.
At approximately 5:30 PM, we will conclude our day's activities and return to Puerto Natales, arriving around 7:00 PM. Drop-off at your accommodation.
We will depart in our vehicle for the park, meeting with our trackers. They will determine the itinerary and activity for today, always capturing memorable images of the wildlife and surroundings while we use our cameras to hunt the best hunter in the area.
