Big Cats in the Shadow of the Famous Spires of Torres del Paine: “The Most Spectacular National Park in the World”
“Pumaland” at Torres del Paine is a 200-square-kilometer tract of rolling, grassy hills that is the only place in the world where Pumas can be seen on a guaranteed basis. These cats are visible thanks to decades of protection from hunting combined with a uniquely-high density of their favorite prey, guanacos and hares.
Since 2011 we have offered the most sophisticated scientific system for finding, tracking and safely showcasing these graceful but powerful predators. In additional to Pumas you will spot thousands of wild guanacos and be treated to stunning views of the spectacular granite spires of Torres del Paine.
Other wildlife you will fine include Andean Condors, Darwin’s Rheas, Chilean Flamingos, foxes, skunks, swans, geese, and many other bird species.
Lost World Adventures itineraries can be tailor-made according to your plans and preferences: budget, hotel selections, travel dates, optional excursions, length of trip, etc.
