Pedaling dramatic landscapes in Patagonia

The name Patagonia brings out visions of vast wild, untamed lands, guanaco grazing on the grass, towering peaks rising in the distance. It is also a land of 100 year estancia (ranches) and a region with uncrowded roads. Pedalers offers you the chance to cycle through these landscapes, while enjoying luxurious lodging each evening.

Your journey begins in Puerto Natales, as we cycle across the vast grasslands surrounding the national parklands. Here ranchers raise horse and sheep, giant Chilean condors soar overhead and quiet historic haciendas await us each night. The jagged peaks of Torres del Paine, which have popped into view from time to time, now become our focus and we work our way by bike, vehicle and foot through the unbelievable landscapes of this region. Check out Grey Glacier, grab outstanding photos from the scenic overlooks we pass, enjoy the hearty Patagonia cuisine each night, washed down by Chilean wines. It is a ride without compare.

Returning from the boat trip to the hotel for lunch in the restaurant before heading out for our afternoon ride - a nice 24km ride to the Serrano Village area along a flat gravel road passing pampas where we can see wild horses roaming and guanacos grazing throughout.

We'll first explore the cave on foot before heading out on our bikes along a moderate 10km mountainous dirt track taking us through history as we pedal past several small caves - one which includes ancient archaeological cave paintings left by primitive tribes who lived in the region.
