From the moment you get to the Park, we offer you two options: visit by bus or go trekking and riding in 4x4 vehicles. Among the possible centres of attraction and lookouts than can be visited, we can find: - Sarmiento de Gamboa Lake (lookout) - Amarga Lagoon - Paine River waterfalls - Panoramic stop with descent of 15 minutes in Superior Viewpoint of Nordenskjold Lake (Panoramic of the Horns) - Salto Grande (50 minute walk), if the weather permitting, we will continue with the longest walk of 1 hour more towards Lake Nordenskjold to appreciate the Cuernos del Paine very closely. - Pehoé Lake, panoramic view of the horns

Here we can see the French Valley and the Cuernos del Paine in the background; where at midday you will enjoy a picnic in the mountain.
