Why the world goes
Patagonia's signature park, 2.5 hours by road from Puerto Natales, which now has direct flights from Santiago; the W trek is five days, the base-of-the-towers hike one long one.
What to know
Refugios on the W book out by September for the summer; the wind is not a joke. Shoulder months (Oct, Apr) trade crowds for weather.

Background
Torres del Paine National Park is a national park encompassing mountains, glaciers, lakes, and rivers in southern Chilean Patagonia. The Cordillera del Paine group of mountains is the park's centerpiece. It lies in a transition area between the Magellanic subpolar forests and the Patagonian Steppes. The park is located 112 km (70 mi) north of Puerto Natales and 312 km (194 mi) north of Punta Arenas. The park borders Bernardo O'Higgins National Park to the west and the Los Glaciares National Park to the north in Argentine territory. It was established as a national park in 1959. Paine means "blue" in the native Tehuelche (Aonikenk) language and is pronounced PIE-neh.
