There were a lot of great experiences and amazing sunrises, sunsets, and mountain vistas. I would say the pinnacle of the adventure was climbing to the towers in Torres del Paine. It is a long trek but seeing the Torres with the lake behind was stunning. I would have loved to have hiked up halfway and spent the night in Chileno Refugio, left early and saw the sunrise at the Torres. Maybe another time if we can do it again.

Lake Deseado was memorable in so many moments! We didn't have high expectations because it was a fill-in when Covid canceled our cruise from Ushuaia, but the lake was exquisite from our first glimpse. Then, the lodge itself (very isolated) was lovely in every detail. The view from our windows was of pristine waters with mountains in the distance. The short path to the dining facilities took us past beautiful birds, a brook and a beaver dam. Andres and the staff were welcoming, very helpful and genuine. We were a family of 14, joining one another from many parts of the United States and the only ones at the lodge. We were amazed at the menu, and managed to order everything from brie with local berries to guanaco, everything delicious. We over-80 grandparents got plenty of help so we could climb some trails and coast down the mountain on a bike. We also loved the library's collection of books about Patagonia. Our teens found challenging trails. Thank you to everyone including the gracious owners of Deseado Lodge!
