Seno Ultima Esperanza (7 December 2008)

We caught a bus (3 hours) to Puerto Natales, the gate way to Torres del Paine National Park. We decided that a more picturesque way to get to the park would be to go by boat. So here we are in Seno Ultima Esperanza (Last hope sound).


The wind was very cold, we popped outside from time to time for a photo. Here I am in front of Glacier Serrano.

Debarking from the boat in Bernardo O´Higgins National Park.


A short walk to have a look at Glacier Balmaceda.


For the next stage of the journey we travelled by zodiac up the Rio Serrano. It was quite spectacular to see the mountains of the National Park getting closer and closer. Pretty cold though, the orange outfit was necessary.
