4.Paine Circuit Trek
Weatherbeaten and wind-swept, the Paine Circuit in Torres del Paine National Park, at the southern tip of Chile, still feels like the end of the earth. Hike for ten days pass grazing guanacos and soaring condors, trek to glaciers with blue ice that cracks and crashes into the frigid lake below, and view 10,000-foot granite monoliths, like the iconic Cuernos del Paine. With rustic mountain huts and an eclectic assortment of climbers and trekkers from around the globe, neither the 52-mile six-day option or the 72-mile ten-day option will feel like enough.
