How many campsites are in Torres del Paine?
There are 9 campsites inside Torres del Paine National Park. They’re run by 2 different companies: Vertice Patagonia (Dickson, Los Perros, Grey, and Paine Grande campsites), and Las Torres Patagonia (Central, Serón, Francés, Los Cuernos, and Chileno campsites). There used to be free campsites but they were closed a couple of years ago.
Private campsites (Vertice Patagonia and Las Torres Patagonia) have good facilities and offer fully equipped tents for rent as well as camping spots. Some campsites have indoor accommodation options. There is usually a restaurant where you can preorder meals and a shop.

Can you camp anywhere in Torres del Paine?
Not, hikers are allowed to camp only at designated campsites that you have to book in advance. Wild camping is not allowed in the park. If you get caught doing it you’ll pay a massive fine.
How to book the campsites?
Booking paid campsites is easy though for the peak months (December, January, and February) you have to book long in advance. You do it online through the Vertice Patagonia and Las Torres websites. To complete a reservation you have to make a payment. Booking with both companies is open for the 2023/24 hiking season.
There is a website called Booking Patagonia that you can use to book campsites and bust tickets to Torres del Paine. It’s easier because you use only one website to book and plan your trip. We have never used it so I can’t speak from my own experience. It’s recommended on the official CONAF website.
Important! For the O Circuit, you can’t book the Dickson campsite and Los Perros campsite separately. These two can be booked only together. The Vertice Patagonia campsites on the W trek (Grey and Paine Grande) can be booked separately.
Las Torres (Fantastic Sur) campsites on the O Circuit and the W trek can be booked separately.
Read our detailed post on how to get to Torres del Paine Park from Puerto Natales and other towns in Patagonia.
How long in advance to book the campsites in Torres del Paine?
It’s better to plan your route and book campsites a couple of months in advance, even more, if you’re going to hike in Torres del Paine in the peak season, December, January, and February. As of August 2023, the paid campsites (Vertice Patagonia and Las Torres) are open for booking. Overall camping and meal prices at Las Torres Patagonia are higher than the prices at Vertice Patagonia.
If you’re looking for another great place for hiking and camping consider visiting El Chalten about 400 km north of Torres del Paine. It’s called the hiking capital of Argentina. There are several trekking routes in El Chalten with stunning scenery. Camping in El Chalten is easy no need to book anything long in advance.

Gear rental
It’s possible to rent full camping gear (a tent, a mat, and a sleeping bag) at all four campsites.

You reduce your backpack weight by 5 kg on average.

- a mat – US$12 per night
- a sleeping bag – US$25 per night
Meal options
It’s possible to order ready-made meals (breakfast, lunch/box lunch, and dinner) at Dickson, Grey, and Paine Grande campsites. There is no restaurant at the Perros campsite. The three campsites have a coffee shop where you can buy sandwiches, pastries, snacks, tea, coffee, beer, etc.

These campsites are more expensive than the Vertice Patagonia ones especially if you’re a solo hiker. For single occupancy, they charge a supplement of US$12 per camping site. Some campsites have wooden decks for pitching a tent. If you arrive late you don’t have to struggle to look for a good spot. As of August 2023, Las Torres campsites can be booked online.

5C. Chileno (the O, the W trek), open from 15th September
It’s the closest to the Mirador Las Torres campsite, about 4,5 km. It takes 2,5-3 hours to walk to the Mirador. For this reason, the campsite is very popular and often fully booked. I’d recommend making a reservation at Chileno a couple of months in advance. The spots for camping are in the forest next to the river. Important! Due to the high risk of forest fires, it’s not allowed to use a camping stove at the Chileno campsite. You can buy meals at the campsite, bring food that doesn’t require cooking, or precook your meals in advance.

The O Circuit itinerary and campsites
The O Circuit is one of the best long-distance treks in Patagonia it’s definitely worth doing. As of November 2021, two free campsites can’t be booked and there is no information if they will be open in the coming hiking season. My suggestion is not to count on the free campsites and rather book paid campsites along the route. The following itinerary includes only paid campsites.
When booking the campsites it’s essential to remember that the O Circuit can be walked only counterclockwise; from Central to Serón to Dickson etc.
Distances between the campsites on the O circuit in Torres del Paine
- Day 1. Puerto Natales – Central campsite, Torres del Paine (bus). Central campsite – Serón campsite (Las Torres Patagonia), 13 km.
- Day 2. Serón campsite – Dickson campsite (Vertice Patagonia), 18 km
- Day 3. Dickson campsite – Los Perros campsite (Vertice Patagonia), 12 km
- Day 4. Los Perros campsite – Grey campsite (Vertice Patagonia), 15 km
- Day 5. Grey campsite – Francés campsite (Las Torres Patagonia), 20,5 km
- Day 6. Francés campsite – Chileno campsite (Las Torres Patagonia), 20 km
- Day 7. Chileno campsite – Mirador Las Torres – Central campsite, 14 km. Central campsite – Puerto Natales (2 buses).
You can find more details on the route in our post – The O Circuit in Torres del Paine.
The W trek itinerary and campsites
There is one free campsite on the W trek – Italiano. As of July 2022, it is not open. For this reason, the following itinerary includes only paid campsites. You can always change it and stay at Italiano instead of Francés if the free campsite becomes available for booking.
The W trek can be walked either way; clockwise starting from Central or counterclockwise starting from Paine Grande/Grey. There are more itinerary variations for this route.
You can do the W trek as an organized hike with a local company.

How to book refugios in Torres del Paine?
If there are no available campsites for your dates or you are not a big fan of camping you can stay indoors. It’s possible to stay indoors in refugios every night on the W trek and partly on the O circuit.
Vertica Patagonia and Las Torres Patagonia have indoor accommodation options. It can be a bed in a dormitory, a hotel room, or a private wooden cabin.

The Refugio has shared bathrooms (separate for men and women), a lounge area, a restaurant/bar, a shop, and a designated area for cooking with your own camping stove.

Hello,
I'm unable to purchase entrance tickets to Torres Del Paine through the Conaf website. At most, it's letting me buy tickets until Dec 31st 2023. I'm unable to scroll past it to the next year. Any ideas when next year's tickets might go on sale, or if there's another way to buy them? Thank you!

Hello. I would suggest to check every week or so. They should open it soon as many people start booking campsites and planning their trip now. If you haven't booked campsites yet you can try Book Patagonia service. They offer packages that include campsites and entrance tickets. You pay a small fee for their service but you can book everything on one site. Cheers

Thank you very much for the detailed information. My friend and I have booked campsites for the O circuit for late October (in chronological order): Seron, Dickson, Perros, Grey, Paine Grande, Frances, Central.
Given the distances between some campsites are not that far and we are used to doing long distances each day, we were also hoping to do some 'off the beaten track' hikes, e.g. going up Cerro Paine, or visiting the Oggioni pass. Do you know if we are allowed to do that ourselves or we must hire a guide? We are hoping to go up Cerro Paine just before reaching Central camp (from Frances), and visiting Oggioni from Dickson before continuing to Perros. Additionally, there is also a 'Camp Japones' but we are unable to find information about it so far.
If we are allowed to do it self-guided, is it possible to alter campsites dates, or skip a few campsites, and book ones (e.g. central, or dickson) for multiple days to do the side treks? Or do we have to show a booking for each campsite along the way in order to progress?

@Stingy Nomads,
Where in the CONAF rules do you see that you must camp at Dickson and Los Perros? I'm actually trying to find out info about Grey and whether this campsite can be skipped. For example, stay at Los Perros and then Paine Grande. There is some (mis)information online that states that Grey cannot be skipped. However, when booking on Vertice website, you do not need to book Grey. The CONAF website doesn't mention anything about specific camps/refugios, they simply state you need to have reservations to stay in the park.
Thank you!

Hello. Thank you for the comment. As far as I know to hike Oggioni Pass and any routes outside of the standard treks you need a guide. These routes are not marked and unauthorized wild camping is not allowed in Torres del Paine. You need a booking for every night you're going to stay in the park. If you can book some campsites for more than 1 night it's fine. I believe on the O circuit you have to stay in Serron, Dickson, Los Perros, and from there you can walk longer distances. e.g. skip Grey and stay in Paine Grande. You can do side hikes to Mirador Britanico and Frances these are quite challenging ascents and the views are spectacular. If you want more of a challenging experience without having to book and plan everything in advance you can do some other hikes in Patagonia outside Torres del Paine National Park. You can go to El Chalten, hike to O'Higgins Glacier, or do some hikes in the new Patagonia national Park. There you can hike as far as you want. Cheers

Thank you so much for this great overview of the Torres del Paine treks. It was very helpful for me. We will be a family of 5 with 3 children doing the W-trek from 18/1/2024. I was wondering if you have any suggestions on where to stay the night before and where to leave our rental car. We will start at the grey refugio.
Thanks a lot!

@Stingy Nomads, thanks so much. So it will be easier to take the bus and leave the car in puerto natales, correct? We will travel up north after that's why I considered taking the rental car to torres del paine. I thought of taking the cruise from Pudeto Pier and than walk to the refugio Grey or is this not a good idea? thank you again!

Hello Annelies. If you start at Refugio Grey I assume you're planning to do a cruise from Hotel Lago Grey to Refugio Grey? I'm not sure if it's necessary to rent a car for Torres del Paine or drive in it to the park. You can get by bus from Puerto Natales to Hotel Lago Grey from where you can get a boat to Refugio Grey. If you take the morning bus that leaves Puerto Natales at 7 am you'll be able to get to Refugio Grey in one day. The day before you can stay in Puerto Natales and leave your rental car there. If you drive to the park with your own car after finishing the W trek you'll have to take a bus to get back to your car. It's easier to get to and from the park by bus. I'll publish tomorrow a detailed post on how to get to Torres del Paine with prices and timetable. It might be helpful for our planning. Good luck

Most campsites on the O Circuit can accommodate 100 people so I guess 100 will be the limit for the day on the O circuit. There might be less people depending on the season. Cheers

Hello! Thank you so much. I'm living off your info for all of central and south. You're amazing! We want to do the w trek, ending St hosteria las torres. I was then wondering if it is possible to camp there the night to do an early trek over to the fauna trail from there? Is this possible? Does the bus then come past the porterage sarnmiento entrance? Thank you!!!

Hello Indiana. Thank you for the comment. There is no bus that goes from Laguna Amarga entrance to the Sarmiento entrance. As far as I know there is no bus that goes to Sarmiento. The Fauna Trail route can be done in one direction from Sarmiento to Amargo. In order to get to the starting point from Hotel Las Torres you'll have to get a bus to Laguan Amarga first and then try to hitchhike to get to the Sarmiento entrance. You can try to hitchhike all the way from Las Torres to the starting point of the hike. I don't think it's really worth the trouble considering that you're going to do the W trek which has more impressive scenery anyway. Cheers
