Wind scrapes the spine of Navarino Island and the Dientes — jagged rock teeth — rise like a last line of defense against the Southern Ocean. On this seven‑day private expedition you cross the Beagle Channel, sleep in tented camps under low, mobile clouds, and step between turquoise lagoons carved by ice and weather.

History
This coastline is historic Yaghan territory and later a focus of European explorers; the Martín Gusinde Museum in Puerto Williams documents Yaghan and Selk'nam heritage.

Prepare for wind and rain
A waterproof breathable shell and rain gaiters are essential — weather changes fast and wind-driven rain is common.
Footwear matters
Sturdy, waterproof hiking boots with good ankle support will reduce blisters and make boggy sections manageable.
Pace for long days
Daily distances average 13–14 km with 7–8 hour days; start conservatively to save energy for exposed ridgelines.
Protect fragile forests
Stick to established campsites and avoid cutting vegetation — beaver damage already stresses local ecosystems.
Waterproof hardshell jacket
Keeps wind and rain out on exposed ridgelines and during coastal crossings.
Sturdy waterproof hiking boots
Support and protection for boggy trails and rocky approach sections.
Insulating midlayer (fleece/down)
Warmth for windy summit breaks and cold nights at camp.
Trekking poles
Improve balance on uneven terrain and reduce impact on knees during long descents.
