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.
Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.

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.
The route traces paths inside Cabo de Hornos National Park, across glacial basins and native lenga forest that host introduced beavers and semi‑feral horses. Geologically the Dientes are eroded granite and metamorphic ridges; each notch is a record of glaciation and wind. Culturally the region is the ancestral territory of the Yaghan people; modern Puerto Williams preserves Yaghan and Selk’nam artifacts at the Martín Gusinde Museum you visit on the final day.
Expect four sustained trekking days — roughly 13–14 km and up to eight hours daily — on uneven, often wet terrain with exposed ridgelines and boggy sections. Guides use satellite phones and VHF for safety; tents (one per two people), stove systems and group food are provided.
Practicalities: fly from Punta Arenas to Puerto Williams, bring a waterproof shell and layered insulation, and plan for high wind and sudden rain any month. Hydrate, protect your feet with waterproof boots, and be prepared to carry a daypack for long alpine approaches. This is remote Patagonia: it rewards fitness, flexibility, and a willingness to let the weather set the day’s pace.
challenging.
7 days (4 full days of trekking, 7–8 hours/day).
Participants should have strong endurance for consecutive long days with a loaded daypack; previous multi‑day hiking experience is recommended.
The route is remote and managed as a backcountry circuit; guides carry satellite phones and VHF radios but rescue can be delayed — expect self‑sufficiency and guided group protocols.
You should be comfortable hiking 13–14 km for 7–8 hours on consecutive days with a daypack; prior multi‑day hike experience is recommended.
Common sightings include semi‑feral horses and invasive North American beavers, along with seabirds near the Beagle Channel.
Private transfers, selected hotel nights in Punta Arenas and Puerto Williams, tents and group camping equipment, some meals on trek, satellite communication and park fees are included per itinerary.
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.
Introduced beavers have heavily altered Navarino’s forests; follow strict camp protocols and Leave No Trace principles to limit your footprint.
