You might consider THIS adventure to be THE trip of a lifetime. If you have always wanted to explore one of Patagonia's finest gems on your own two feet, than come along with us for the inaugural fast-pack of the Torres del Paines circuit!  Together, we will complete both the famous O route in Patagonia's iconic National Park. 

We have put together an all inclusive run/hike fast-pack adventure and sorted out all the logistics so that you can just enjoy yourself.  Leave the planning and navigation to us and the food and accommodations to our partners down in Chile.  Once you arrive at our meeting location in Punta Arenas, Chile we have you covered.  This exclusive running trip is for the adventure minded who wants to experience the culture of South America and run in one of the world's most breath taking places. If you are up for the challenge, the experience and an unforgettable trip, come along.  Note that we will only be offering this trip in 2019 so don't miss out on an unforgettable week of global traveling and remote running. 

The WHAT:  a fast-pack adventure (run/hike) covering approx 100miles over 5 days on the O circuit in the Torres del Paines National Park.

The training starts in November!
