Puerto Natales

Puerto Natales · Chile · Puerto Natales

The gateway to Torres del Paine's granite towers without the crowds of the park itself, a waterfront lined with the same rusted machinery from the old meat-packing industry, and hikers from every continent swapping trail notes over dinner every single night.

The best time to visit Puerto Natales is Nov–Mar, when typical daytime highs reach about 3°C (37°F). Local time there is 09:20 (UTC-3).
