Grey Glacier and Lago de Grey

Located inside Torres del Paine National Park in Chilean Patagonia. Starting with incredible views of Cuernos del Paine and Cerro Paine, the day hike to Grey Glacier and Lago Grey features stunning lake and mountain views throughout most of the trail. The 12 km trek is considered one of the easier hikes of the multi-day Torres del Paine W trek, beginning at Camp Paine Grande. The mostly flat and shaded sections offer captivating scenery culminating in a short rocky climb near the end to witness the massive Grey Glacier calving into the glacial lake.

The trek to Laguna de los Tres is one of the primary day activities in Los Glaciares National Park, providing a close-perspective view of the granite massif of Mount Fitz Roy (3,405m). The route follows an out-and-back trail through mixed forest and glaciated valleys, passing the Piedras Blancas viewpoint before the final ascent. The journey is defined by a significant transition from the low-lying valley floor to the high-alpine environment of the lagoon, which sits directly below the main peaks.
