The 'W' trek is the name given to the W shaped beaten track that interlinks the 3 Granite Paine Towers, the French Valley, and the Grey Glacier.  The trek is approximately 70 kilometers (43 miles) in total distance and is one of the most scenic treks in the world.

​

     The W Express program is a shortened  option for those you wants to do the W in 3 hiking days.  This is ideal for those on a short vacation leave and still  wants to see the major highlights of the W Trek,  main highlights of the W trail,  mainly: the Base of the tower; French Valley; and the Grey Glacier. During the 3 days of hiking you will not be carrying the sleeping bags on the trail,  you will be hiking only with a daypack and your day gear only,  you can just leave your sleeping bag and mat at Paine Grande while hiking. 

Due to the date and weather conditions, a certified guide is required for the hikes included in this program, therefore the values may be adjusted.(until the end of september this restriction will remain in place)
