Visión general
Walking through the Dientes de Navarino trail is much more than a physical trial, is in fact a challenge to all your senses. Magellanic clouds, strong wind, snow and ice will follow you in every step. It is essential to be prepared to allow you to enjoy and be inmerse in this unique nature. A journey through the purest ecosystems in the world, listening the silence of the wind and the breath of the mountains. An invitation to rediscover the zero point.
