HotelsPatagonia Running Festival (50k/42k/21k/10k/5k)
Nestled at the bottom of South America, Patagonia is remote, barren, breathtakingly beautiful and guaranteed to leave you breathless and renewed as you disconnect from the world and find your place amidst its natural magnificence.
The park is known for its dramatic landscapes made up of massive granite cliffs, glaciers, turquoise lakes and vast plains where wildlife roams freely.
Immerse yourself in a hiker’s paradise and enjoy a wonderfully unique experience, unlike anything you’ve experienced before. The turquoise waters, beautiful glaciers, imposing granite horns and breathtaking landscapes of this eighth wonder of the world are truly humbling.
What else can you expect? Amazing wildlife watching in Torres del Paine – see majestic condors soaring above you, spot foxes, huemul (Andean deer) and guanacos along the way. And if you’re patient and wait patiently, you might even be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the shy mountain lion!
