Puerto Natales

Monday 21st March 2011

We arrived in Puerto Natales at 1pm, giving us the afternoon to source the final bits and pieces for our 4-day trek. When we first packed for the trip, we put our walking boots and socks in, but gave little thought to anything else. With hats and scarves purchased, along with a snack or two for the trip, we were all set. The chap at the hostel was really helpful, and we were soon booked on the bus for the next day.

Puerto Natales is a homely but also strange town. It feels like you're in a small town in the US, but nearly everyone you see is a tourist. You sense that everyone is either starting or has just finished their treks.

After a really good pizza and pasta meal, we packed for our trip, ready for an early start.
Chocolate house, serving real chocolate hot chocolates. We just had to!
