Puma Photo Safari in Torres del Paine
fromThe rolling hills in and around Torres del Paine are perhaps the best place in the world to observe Pumas in their habitats; lounging, stalking, hunting, and caring for their young. This vast landscape is home to large herds of Guanaco, their main prey, and the world-famous massif of the Torres del Paine are an absolutely stunning backdrop for days out in the field. The opportunities of capturing spectacular images during our Puma Photo Safari are second to none. We’ll be aided by professional Puma trackers that know the local population and their habits.
Trips can be organizes throughout the year. In the winter the parks sees less traffic and allows for photos of the Pumas contrasted to the snowy landscape. While spring may be a better time to happen upon Puma on the hunt for young Guanacos. In any case, these big cats are a true spectacle and an absolute joy to photograph regardless of the time of year.
Additionally, you can extend this itinerary to include a day trip to the King Penguin colony on Tierra del Fuego, Magellanic Plover and steppe birding, Coastal and Forest Birding South of Punta Arenas, or the Magellanic Penguin colony on Isla Magdalena.
Private trips can be organized year around as requested
