Tour Itinerary:
Day 1: Puerto Natales to Rio Serrano: We will take a truck to the sector of Rio Serrano closest to Puerto Natales, in Torres del Paine National Park. We will board our kayaks and row until we reach a beautiful waterfall, where we will get out and take a short walk (about 200 meters) carrying our kayaks, avoiding the waterfall. Shortly after this we will stop to camp.
Day 2: Lake Geyke. Today we will move our kayaks, rest, and prepare for the following day. We start out today carrying our kayaks towards Rio Geike, this part of the river is upstream and it is very complicated to paddle up. Afterwards we will set up our camp and rest a bit with the incredible view of Lake Geyke at our feet.
Day 3: Lake Geike - Serrano. Today, we paddle our way into the lake between different ice burgs until arriving at the Glacier Geike, where we can see more or less where it has receded. Luckily, the currents are with us when we return to Rio Serrano and along the way we will look for a place to set up camp.
Day 4: Puerto Toro - Puerto Natales. In the morning we will continue our trip on Rio Serrano until we arrive at Puerto Toro. Here we will leave our kayaks to walk 35 minutes to see Glacier Serrano at the foot of Mount Balmaceda in Bernardo O´Higgins National Park. Upon returning to our kayaks, we will load them onto a boat (21 de Mayo) that will take us to Puerto Natales. Before arriving we will stop at a typical Chilean farmhouse for lunch. After this will will continue by motor boat to Puerto Natales.
