So many people have seen the Towers and the Horns from the viewpoints along the highway. But there is a side of the Torres del Paine National Park which cannot be discovered in a short visit. The French Valley at the feet of the Horns and the Grey Glacier as an extension of the Southern Patagonian Ice field are destinations on their own merits, and this program provides the necessary time in order to discover and wait for the moment in which the Patagonian wind takes the clouds to a place where they are enhanced with the light, providing memorable photos.
