No Availability for the W Trek? The Ultimate Guide to Living Your Dream Anyway
Most travelers give up when the W Trek says ‘fully booked.’ That’s where we step in. After a decade on the ground, I know the exact workaround so you still experience the full magic of Torres del Paine—without missing a thing.
What to Do When There’s No Availability for the W Trek
Insider tip: At Do Patagonia, we take care of everything for you—transport, boat, meals, gear, and trekking routes.
Pro advice: Don’t postpone your dream. Base Torres, the French Valley, and Grey Glacier are still within reach with our custom logistics.
The On-the-Ground Reality
By September, most W Trek campsites and refugios are fully booked. Due to the park’s remoteness and strict capacity limits, spots fill up months in advance. Every season, we see travelers arriving in Puerto Natales full of excitement—only to discover there’s no availability.
That’s why, as travel agency based in Puerto Natales, we’ve crafted a safe and spectacular alternative—so you still experience Torres del Paine without missing a thing: stay in the heart of Torres del Paine, inside the park, with daily logistics to access the W’s most iconic hikes.
