► ABOUT THIS HIKE
In November 2023, I hiked the O-trek (including the W-trek) in Torres del Paine National Park, Chile in southern Patagonia.
Day 1: I traveled by bus from Puerto Natales, entered the park at Laguna Amarga, and set up camp at Las Torres. I hiked to Mirador Base Las Torres, covering 23 kilometers. Day 2: I trekked 39 kilometers to Campamento Dickson, passing Rio Paine, Campamento Seron, and Lago Paine, with the glacier Dickson in the distance. Day 3: I covered 25 kilometers through a stunning forest to Los Perros, passing the Perros Glacier, and did a day-hike to the Puma Glacier on a non-maintained trail. Day 4: The day started with a climb to the Paso John Garner pass in snow. At top I got a mesmerizing view of the white expanse of Grey Glacier. I followed the trail along the glacier to Campamento Grey, then to Paine Grande campground. Day 5: despite the rain, I covered 43 kilometers. I hiked up to Mirador Británico and back to Central via Camping Francés and Refugio Los Cuernos. On the day 6, I woke up at 2:30 am and climbed to Mirador Base Las Torres, completing the final 20 kilometers of my 182-kilometer journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Patagonia.

    Harmen, I seldom comment on videos but this is art in its purest form. The videography and production of every single one of your videos is so inspiring and beautiful. Thank you
  • Patagonia is by far one of the most off the charts places on this planet and your film capturing and releasing to my eyes, ears and deep sensing gave me views I had not heretofore experienced the sites. A lot of work and core love you put into your work and I’m sure brings you great joy. So many aspects of your filming I thought was just beautiful that to describe in this small note would be vain. Thank you for bringing me into another one of the spaces I too long to adventure. Peace brother.
  • I remember the same journey I made some years ago and how it changed my life, feeling like I was looking God in the face. In its trees, in the wind amidst the mountains, in the rain and in the cold. Everything is perfect in the Chilean Patagonia. Thank you very much for your video.

    When you hear those birds singing loudly "creek creek creek", they announce rain for the following day. In the central area of ​​Chile they are called queltehue, in the south they have another name, Treile. ☺️💖🇨🇱

    I just did this trek a month ago (late November 2023). I would guess you were there a week or two before me as the conditions look very similar. I don't have the talent or ambition to make a video such as this. I'm so greatful that you did. It helps cement the memories.
  • @Giedriukas3
    Wonderful, no high tech equipment, no screaming, just nature, nice views and calm music, what could be better - dream of every man :)
  • @moto.explora
    A wonderful video that portrays our beloved Chilean Patagonia in all its greatness. Thank you for sharing these spectacular images, you do an incredible job!
  • This was hands down one of the best videos I've ever seen on YouTube, this is the kind of content the internet was made for. Thank you once again for putting God's creation on display in such a beautiful and profound way, Harmen. May God bless you and your work, brother.
  • A masterpiece, as always! You know your way with a camera, always ingenious point of views, perfect framing, immersive sound, captivating.
  • Not a single word. The music, the sound of elements, I truly was able to transport myself to those places and feel once again those wonderful sensations walking The Chilean Patagonia. This is a piece of art, both the video and the landscape. Just Love it.
  • Estuve en diciembre de 2008 haciendo el circuito de las Torres del Paine solo, la visión del glaciar Gray cuando se accede desde Los Perros en el paso John Gardner es inolvidable. Este video de Harmen me ha transportado 15 años atrás. No entiendo como este canal no tiene más suscriptores. La calidad de las imágenes, el montaje de las mismas .....es absolutamente extraordinario. Gracias.
  • @e_andres289
    Que bueno que hayas estado en Chile. Hermoso estar en base torres al amanecer. Saludos y felicidades 🇨🇱
  • @mariush7888
    I just wanted to thank you Harmen for all your effort and work. I had an accident and currently in the hospital. Your videos offer a great escape from reality. Thank you!
  • @mescalon
    I live in the Chilean Patagonia an this is one of the best videos capturing the real essence of this wonderful place in the world. Congratulations
  • @OnizukaKohai
    I'm travelling to Patagonia next year and I've watched a million pieces about it. There's no doubt your eye is different, there's just some scenes no one else captures. Thank you for sharing it. Also the start of the O route kinda looks like a Patagonian Fanal!
  • @Panjee316
    I think this is most beautiful scenery so far.
  • The beauty of Patagonia is undeniable, it is a masterpiece of nature. But I admire your tenacity, as for me I would say heroism, to overcome so many difficulties, in the cold and rain, bravo and thank you so much for this amazing film.
  • Dear Harmen I absolutely LOVE your videos… silent hiking. Brings my mind at ease. So peaceful. What I Love the most is the slow pace in your videos. But… it seems to me that the wonderful slow pace and slow change of scenes has sadly been left behind? Please dont rush the scenes… please keep the slow pace - it it your trademark 🤗🙏🏻
