We only experienced the short hike to Serrano glacier and got a taste of the unique virgin forest. We were told there are few trails and the park is largely unexplored and undeveloped. This is a gem in the raw and you can hire a private guide to take you to the least visited areas.

A sail through this beautiful Sound offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains, and the setting is particularly gorgeous at sunset.

You get here by boat from Puerto Natales and it is well worth the trip - you can get off and walk to pretty close to the face of the glacier and it is so beautiful - quite stunning - loved it.

Whether hiking to it or simply viewing it from afar, this massive glacier is truly extraordinary.

Viewed Grey Glacier from a distance during a moderate hike within Torres Del Paine National Park. It was simply awesome and to view and hold some of the broken small icebergs of the glacier from up close in the lake was memorable. There are several other options of viewing the grey glacier including boat navigation. Certainly would very highly recommend viewing the Grey Glacier to any tourist.

Nice short hike that goes quite steeply uphill towards a beautiful viewpoint. Probably not recommended in the rain as slopes could be slippery.
6. Lago Sofia

Laguna Sofía is very near to Puerto Natales (20 minutes by car) and is great to hike for couple of hours to the top of the mountain. Also, you can find some climbing routes and is just on the shore of the lagoon, so is perfect for a pic nic lunch! To get there you need your own transportation as there is no public transport.

We had an overcast,drizzly day when we visited as part of a cruise and this really gave the area a beautiful feel. There was a lot of cloud around, that made it very atmospheric and there were also dolphins in the fjord which added to the experience. The cruise ship spent about an hour close to the glacier which enabled everyone to get a good view.
8. Cueva del Milodon

Reviewed By 716sachink - Plainview, United States
Located at a short driving distance from Puerto Natales, it is a natural monument with caves. It is situated along the flanks of Cerro Benitez. It comprises several caves and a rock formation called Silla del Diablo (Devil's Chair). The monument includes a cave which is notable for the discovery in 1895 of skin, bones and other parts of a giant ground sloth called Mylodon darwini, making it extremely unique. It is also part of the End of the World Route, a scenic touristic route. Certainly would very highly recommend visiting Cueva Del Milodon to any tourist in Puerto Natales or Punta Arenas.
