Waterfalls and rivers, Magellanic sub-polar forests, pampas, mountains covered with permanent ice, granite peaks, meadows and glacier fed lakes await the outdoor adventurers to discover the wild and unique nature of Patagonia. The world wide known Towers, or else called Torres, are three incredible granite spikes. Among these, the highest of all stands at 9514 ft/2900 m high, being all part of the Cordillera del Paine.
In order to approach the Towers, there are minibuses at Laguna Amarga Keeper Post, that will take you to Estancia Paine from where you can start your hike. The trail will lead you onto the Rio Ascencio valley where you will go towards the valley and up a moraine to the glacial lake, at the east side of the south tower. The Hoth route follows an incredible line up until the summit. It has 27 pitches of technical rock and ice climbing. There are also endless cracks in some sections of this vertical rock.
Once you reach the top, the view of the nature around you is overwhelming with outstanding ecosystems, different landscapes and rare flora and fauna, found nowhere else on the planet. In every step you take, the views of this dramatic land take your breath away. The best time to climb the Hoth route is between October through February. Be very well prepared in regards with gear, food and clothing because the weather is changeable and unpredictable with high winds, rain showers, long hot days during summer, snow and everything else you may think of. Wind proof layers are the key.
