DARWIN HOUSE Darwin House has recently been refurbished to a very high standard and offers the facilities expected of a modern lodge. All rooms at Darwin House now are en-suite providing spacious comfortable rooms with all the modern conveniences expected by today’s travellers. If you are thinking of a romantic weekend or simply need somewhere to get away to relax why not book into one of the two rooms offering the option of shower or jacuzzi baths. The newly appointed managers Lorraine Campbell and Al Pluckrose along with Elena and Aleks provide a warm welcome to the lodge. Lorraine and Al had the good fortune to be posted as part of their roles in the Royal Air force to Mount Pleasant Complex for 16 months in 2007. They fell in love with the Falklands and loved island life so much that they recently left their home in Spain to return to the Falklands as the new Darwin House Management Couple. Full afternoon teas and fabulous ‘smoko’s’ have long been a Darwin House speciality. Now you can enjoy the delicious food in one of two beautifully furnished rooms with scenic views over the harbour. Additionally, Darwin House can cater for lunches, evening meals and even special functions. Eileen Davies is now offering an interesting range of tours from Darwin House including the off-the-beaten track tour to Hope Pace, founded in 1847 on the edge of Brenton Loch and overlooked by Mount Usborne. Sadly, the settlement was short-lived as, for a variety of reasons, it was considered to be an unsuitable location, and in 1859 the settlement moved to Darwin Harbour. All that remains of the settlement are a few scenic stone ruins that provide a valuable insight into how the early settlers lived and the difficulties they encountered in this beautiful but harsh environment.

Grey. By the end of each day, you arrive back at the Hotel Las Torres, where you can recharge

the following day. "W in Comfort" lets you experience untamed Patagonia without any concerns
other than enjoying the freedom of our pampas and observing the beauty of the mountains.

You will explore the Ascencio Valley, walking through a beautiful lenga forest and getting up close to the astounding Towers of Paine. The trail travels through native bushland and crosses streams and moraines. If you like horses you may opt to horseback ride to El Chileno Lodge, which is located halfway up the trail. Then you may continue on toward the base of the Towers on foot. Excursion to the French Valley. We will take you to the Pudeto boat dock by vehicle. Here, you will board the “Hielos Patagónicos” Ferry for a 30 minute crossing of the Pehoé Lake, to reach the trailhead for the trek towards the French Valley. The trail is surrounded by lakes, rivers and streams, and a wonderful view of the Paine massif. Once you reach the foot of Paine Grande Mountain you will be able to rest in front of the French Glacier, where you might witness one of the frequent avalanches from a distance. Excursion to the Grey Lookout. We will take you to the Pudeto boat dock by vehicle. Here, you will board the “Hielos Patagónicos” Ferry for a 30 minute crossing of the Pehoé Lake, to reach the trailhead for the trek towards the Grey Glacier viewpoint. The hike travels through rocky areas, evergreen and deciduous forests. From the lookout you will have a wonderful view of the Grey Glaciar and the Grey Lake which is often filled with icebergs. Day 5 Departure to the airport in Punta Arenas.
As an aside it’s worth knowing that global traveller review website TripAdvisor has ranked Restaurant Coirón at Hotel Las
Torres the best place to dine in Torres del Paine National Park based on comments from those who have sampled our
excellent cuisine. In January they are introducing an a la carte menu which includes vegetarian options besides the typical
Patagonian dishes already on offer at Restaurant Coirón.
