Torres del Paine National Park in Chilean Patagonia offers a network of well-maintained hiking trails, including the famous W Trek and O Circuit. In March of 2023, we attempted to fastpack both routes over 5 nights. Join us on our journey, and prepare to be captivated by the beauty and resilience of nature in this remote corner of the world.

I wish Netflix or Amazon would team up with you and do a whole series of trail running & fast packing with you and a full production crew.

It might destroy everything that is pure and beautiful about this way of living.

@@w.k.9224 I want as many people as possible to know about the pure enjoyment and almost zen-like pact with nature that is running and I want absolutely none of them to actually take up running. To me, running is all about mental health, cardio is just a bonus. Crowded trails would ruin running for me.

I'm not a fast packer or trail runner yet, but I sincerely enjoy these close-to-feature-length films. Thank you for documenting your runs. And a thank you to Audrey for staying positive throughout basically everything. ❤

I have to go to bed (it's late here, I will watch it tomorrow) but thanks a lot Jeff and Audree for these great adventures, they are really inspiring. After years of "boring" road racing I have begun trail running because of your videos. It has helped a lot in my life. Muchas gracias!

I'm traveling to Torres Del Paine in March of 2025 so I was delighted to find such a well-done film about the same time of year. It was beautifully documented and very informative. Thank you!!

By far the best video of TDP circuit. Grey to Britanico and back to Paine G - you guys are beasts. Hats off. I only went Paine G - Britanico - Italiano and still was the most exhausting day on my circuit.

Thanks so much for this, brilliant. My wife and I would have loved the O route but in our 80’s now. We have done lots including the TMB and Via Tillman. But it was really great to see it with you and Audrey. Loved the music too. Dave B

Jeff's videography and his ability to make the scene the main character, or Audree, in some cases, is really his genius. His doesn't let the, "Hey, dig me!" that is the crack of 1st person videos get in the way of the information, or the story. I absolutely love everything Jeff does on KZfaq. I would watch a feature length Jeff film on nearly anything. Thanks for being a consumate professional. I always look forward to your content. Edit: I spelled "Audree" like an American. I come by it honest.

I am speechless, thank you so much for this unique content. I'm sitting in front of my television and can't stop marvelling. The colours of nature, the incredibly beautiful landscape of Torres del Paine. Paradise couldn't be more beautiful! Well, maybe not so windy!😆 Thank you for sharing this certainly unique experience.

Your lives are magic and I travel vicariously with you. This is the 1st most realistic coverage of the beauty and ruggedness of this circuit it is not your simple walk in the park. There are words for the spiritual beauty you experienced. So worth waiting for. How many times can you say “oh my god”? Not much makes me smile since my husband of 56 yrs took his own life. We were lifelong hiking partners. But you and Audrey get the smile award from me. Thank you so much for sharing. Beauty overload!!

Funny to See the different approach that you took. Did the W in 2013 and wanted to self supply every thing. So big heavy Backpack and every thing for shelter etc.. There are no words to describe the pure nature force of the Winds down There. Even with 20+kg of Backpack and trekking poles you can barely stand on your feet. Totaly trusting on others to Do the O is pretty nervewereckinh to me. Let us See more videos like this.

Thank you for documenting this fast pack, it brought back my own memories of doing the W 10 yrs ago. I'd got there too late in the season to do the O, they'd closed it to visitors. I'd wondered what the 'back' of the Grey glacier looked like and now I know. It has blown my mind a bit how many people there were in March, ugh! It was also interesting to see what had disappeared, changed or improved. And Jeff, if you thought those trails needed attention, don't try to fast pack anything but 'Great Walks' in NZ; those are 'technical' trails ;-)
