Nestled in the heart of El Chaltén, Argentina’s trekking capital, Walk Patagonia specialises in adventure trips in Los Glaciares National Park. Founded by English-born Zoe Taylor and a team of lifelong outdoor enthusiasts, they have spent over 30 years exploring the granite spires and glacial valleys of the southern Andes.
They uphold a firm commitment to responsible tourism and employ highly qualified local guides who bring the landscape to life through its history, geology, and unique ecology. Whether navigating the iconic trails of Mount FitzRoy, visiting the Perito Moreno Glacier, or venturing into the remote backcountry trails, their focus remains on safety, sustainability, and providing a sensory connection to Patagonia's beautiful and wild locations.
Why we Love Working with Walk Patagonia
Sample the flavours of the region
- Expert Local Guides: Their team consists of professional mountain guides who don't just lead the way; they act as storytellers and experts, tailoring every hike to the specific pace and interests of our travellers.
- Shared B Corp Values: Much like Swoop, Walk Patagonia is dedicated to sustainability. They operate with a "leave no trace" philosophy and prioritise the conservation of the fragile ecosystems they call their "office."
- Personalised Service: They avoid the "one-size-fits-all" approach. From meticulously planned daily briefings to their legendary gourmet trail lunches, they craft every detail to make the experience feel bespoke.
- Seamless Logistics: They take the stress out of complex Patagonian travel. From the moment our guests arrive in El Calafate to the final trek back into town, their coordination is flawless and reliable.
