TORRES DEL PAINE MAP

Torres del Paine trekking map

This was the best of the maps for the Parque Nacional that I saw while there. Good detail of the terrain, but would have liked more consistent information on trail distances in km. Distances are recorded in hours it takes to hike each segment, which is a standard that the other maps of the park use. However, the times given were a good estimate of the time it takes to hike each part of the trail. What isn't clear from any of the maps is the difficulty or rough conditions of many of the trails. In general, trekking in the park is moderately challenging, but the condition of many of the trails (rocky, steep, and/or highly eroded in places) makes it more so.This was the best of the maps for the Parque Nacional that I saw while there.

Torres del Paine Waterpoof Trekking Map

I happen to love maps and this topo map proved very useful on a recent trip to the Torres del Paine. Despite contstant use, the map did not tear and I didnt have to worry about damage by fluids. Contours and shaded relief made it easy to identify location. Definitely recommend the map for even the casual day-hiker in the Torres del paine. [Amazon.com]
