🏔️ How to combine Torres del Paine and El Calafate?

El Calafate

Two wonders of Patagonia in one trip… and without complications.

Colossal glaciers or legendary mountains? The impressive Perito Moreno Mountains or the imposing Torres del Paine Massif? Don’t choose! Combining El Calafate (Argentina) and Torres del Paine (Chile) in a single trip is one of the best decisions for any nature and adventure lover.

Here we tell you how to do it easily, safely, and well-planned, with a bonus: our Lenga 5D/4N Program, designed especially for those who dream of experiencing the best of both worlds in a single experience.

🚐 How are El Calafate and Torres del Paine connected?

Although they are in two different countries, the connection is direct and scenic. El Calafate and Puerto Natales, the base city for exploring Torres del Paine, are separated by approximately 5 to 6 hours of land travel, including the border crossing at Paso Cancha Carrera – Cerro Castillo.

💡 Helpful tip: A valid passport or ID card is required (for Mercosur citizens). If you’re traveling by rental car, make sure you have the necessary permits for international crossings.
