Drive to Estancia Cerro Negro. Visit a typical Patagonian ranch where you will get to observe sheepdog-herding and sheep-shearing shows. Continue to Torres del Paine National Park where you will be based for the next three nights at Hotel Las Torres, in search of the elusive puma.
Early morning, be led by an expert in puma tracking, animal-observation and photography, on foot or van, across the nearby areas of either the hotel or national park, depending on where the best chance of seeing a puma that day. Learn about the habits of the puma and its behavior, according to the type of puma-sightings you will expect to see or have seen. You may even be able to spot guanacos or other Patagonian wildlife. Have lunch back in the hotel, before heading out for more opportunities in search of the puma.
Another full day of puma-tracking awaits! In the evening, enjoy a typical Patagonia barbecue (asado) back in your hotel.
