Book Description
Guidebook to trekking in the heart of Patagonia, with routes in Torres del Paine National Park (Chile) and Los Glaciares National Park (Argentina). While the region is primarily a remote and mountainous glaciated wilderness, walking is easily accessible with clear trails, good public transport and regular mountain huts and campsites. The centrepiece of this dramatic area is the 10-11 day Torres del Paine Circuit (also known as the 'O' Circuit), while the shorter Half Circuit (the 'W') visits much of the same sights in 4-5 days. The guidebook also includes four shorter day walks, a multi-day trek in Argentina's Los Glaciares national park, and several excursions from Puerto Natales and El Calafate. This guidebook includes advice on getting to and around the regions, languages, visa, currency, accommodation and facilities in the National Parks, as well as useful guidance on what to take and expect on the treks. Also featured is background information on the geology, history, wildlife, flora and cultures of the regions, resulting in an excellent companion guide to help you explore the region.

Book Description
This is a book 6 in my new series of "Hiking Maps" for wonderful unearthly beautiful Patagonia, for its oldest national park Nahuel Huapi, of course, fully updated for 2023-24 seasons. The book contains detailed 14 hiking maps, technical details for each trail like distance (km and miles), hiking time, altitude elevation, gain and loss in altitude, visual altitude profiles, itinerary landmarks, free and paid camping sites, mountain huts (refugio), river crossing, bridges, lookouts (mirador), sightseeing. The book describes the major hiking trails (32+) in the park around San Carlos de Bariloche city, but also additional less-known trails and less crowded multi-day hikes at its most remote southern and northern parts of the park, plus, in the small Los Arrayanes National Park, a very popular tourist attraction for hiking in the ancient Arrayanes (Chilean myrtle tree) forest. I also give information on San Carlos de Bariloche city, camping sites, bus station, airport, then the park info, rules and prices, with 45+ useful web links and how to hike safely in Patagonia, art and skills in surviving harsh Patagonian conditions, especially in the Andes region, as a hiker.
