Where should I go and what should I do in Patagonia?

Granite Majesty at Torres del Paine — The iconic three granite towers pierce turquoise lakes in one of Earth's most dramatic landscapes. Stay at Explora Patagonia with guided private hikes and floor-to-ceiling mountain views from your suite.
Perito Moreno Glacier: Nature's Cathedral — Walk directly opposite a 200-foot-high ice wall in Los Glaciares National Park. For the ultimate experience, join a guided ice trek on the glacier itself—unforgettable and exclusive.
World-Class Trekking Capital — El Chaltén offers some of South America's best day hikes: Laguna de los Tres beneath Mount Fitz Roy and Laguna Torre, with jagged granite spires and pristine alpine scenery.
Luxury Lodges in the Wilderness — Properties like Eolo and Helsingfors blend refined comfort with raw nature—wood-fired hot tubs, locally inspired tasting menus by candlelight, and private guides in true solitude.
Wildlife & Untamed Landscapes — Valdés Peninsula delivers penguins, whales, and guanacos. Windswept steppe, glittering lakes, and endless sky create an overwhelmingly pristine world few ever experience.

When should I go to Patagonia?

October–November — Wildflower blooms, newborn wildlife, fewer crowds, shoulder-season magic
December–February — Peak season, warmest weather, up to 17 hours of daylight, ideal for hiking

What do I need to know for a trip to Patagonia?

Book 6–9 months in advance; luxury lodges and top guides sell out quickly
Arrange airport transfers through your lodge; self-driving not recommended due to remote distances and weather
Check visa requirements; US citizens typically don't need visas for Chile/Argentina but confirm passport validity
Patagonia weather is famously changeable — expect sun, rain, and wind in one day even in summer
Most day hikes require basic fitness; you don't need technical skills but should be comfortable on uneven terrain for several hours
Remote locations mean limited communication — inform family of itinerary in advance

The Best of Patagonia: Glaciers and Summer Ski Luxury

Perito Moreno doesn't look real at first. The glacier face rises 200 feet above Lago Argentino in a wall of compressed blue ice that groans, cracks, and periodically sends chunks the size of apartment buildings into the water below. It is one of the only glaciers on earth still advancing, and standing at the viewing platforms as the ice collapses into the lake is the kind of thing you stop trying to photograph to simply watch.

Eight hundred miles north, Bariloche feels like an entirely different Patagonia. The best luxury resorts in Patagonia have settled here, at the foot of Cerro Catedral, the largest ski resort in the Southern Hemisphere. The season runs June through October, which means a traveler from New York or London can ski in July while everyone they know is at the beach.

This is one of those trips worth traveling long distances for. You'll leave having watched a glacier older than civilization calve into a Patagonian lake, and skied a mountain that empties out by afternoon. Argentina earns the distance.
