Parque Nacional Torres del Paine to Puerto Natales, ca. 100km
Day starts off raining, so we don't get up till the last moment for breakfast. Then the skies clear up and with the hints from the owner we plan a little hike to the Mirador Cuernos.
The trail takes us through meadows, along lakes and wild creeks. Accompanies by constant winds that make it difficult to hold the lens still - luckily there is technology against the shake (Vibration Reduction). The Cuernos are impressive and they make me want to do the whole 5 days trip around the massive.
As we go further into the park we'd like to get a peak on the torres themselves. Well, there is a bridge crossing worth mentioning: it's narrow! I mean narrow that the pickups fold their exterior mirrors to get through, the mini buses have taken them off all the way. We decide not to go to the Hosteria Las Torres but more due to time and weather. Thus we head North to find yet another great water fall to take pictures. And we meet a Basque couple with "lots of time and little money".
Later then we drive back to Puerto Natales because we liked it there, liked the hotel (this time we are the only guests) and the restaurant where we have the meat highlight of the trip so far (filete).
