★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 727 reviews · 15 hours · from $90Our pick

Review the Base of the Towers hike from Puerto Natales, with honest advice on fitness, weather, guides, costs, gear, and dramatic views.

“Although we did not get the best weather for a view of the towers, we had a great time hiking, accompanied by Hugo and Ricardo. They were excellent guides that kept us motivated throughout the day, took care of our wellbeing and were a joy to chat with throughout. We ended the hike completely wet so I would highly recommend bringing a change of clothes, rain-proof jacket and backpack protector just in case! I would gladly repeat this experience on a sunnier day.”

5.Puerto Natales: Base of the Towers Trekking Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 191 reviews · 14 hours · from $95

Review of the 14-hour Base of the Towers trek from Puerto Natales, with guide support, forest trails, mountain views, costs, and practical tips.

“Really enjoyed this hike - we were lucky and had great conditions, and also our guide Sebastian was very nice and cheerful! The other guide stayed behind with a couple of people that didn't complete the main hike. We had to wait for them to finish before heading back (quite late as they were quite slower than the rest of the group), so I wouldn't recommend to do a group hike if you are on a tight schedule for the evening - but otherwise it was a great experience!”
