:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Day 6 (Optional) Full day in the Park ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
For those who wish to keep knowing the Torres del Paine in depth we offer the alternative of taking this Full day on the park. Depending on the different interests of the people in the group the guide can take you to places rich in fauna, being able to catch sight of condors, guanacos (relatives to llamas and camels) ñandúes (family of ostriches and emus), the varied bird fauna and with some luck see huemules (Austral deer) and pumas. If you’re interested in plants the guide can show you the most emblematic flora of the Park. You may also go see ancient rock paintings and get to little visited viewpoints and admire spectacular views of the mountain range and later travel to Puerto Natales.
If hiring this extra day we will spend the previous night at Paine Grande refuge, which has wide dining rooms, common rooms, chimney and hot showers. (D night 3 -B-BL)
