This unforgettable experience begins with a pickup from your hotel in Torres del Paine. From there, we head straight to Amarga Ranch, a prime location for puma sightings. Upon arrival, our expert guide will provide a brief introduction, setting the stage for the day’s adventure. With the help of an experienced tracker, we’ll divide the search into specific areas of the ranch, covering as much ground as possible to maximize the chances of spotting a puma in its natural habitat. Early mornings and late afternoons are the prime times for these majestic creatures to roam. The ranch spans over 5,000 hectares dedicated to wildlife conservation, offering an incredible opportunity to encounter not only pumas but also guanacos, foxes, skunks, and a variety of bird species.
The backdrop of the iconic Torres del Paine granite towers makes this an exceptional experience for both wildlife enthusiasts and photographers. Puma tracking combines knowledge, patience, and a bit of luck. We’ll listen for guanaco alarm calls, scan the landscape with binoculars, and observe scavengers like condors and Southern Caracaras—all while immersing ourselves in the rhythm of the wild. Each puma encounter is unique, and every moment spent in their habitat will leave you in awe.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
• For single-day programs, puma sightings cannot be guaranteed. For a higher chance of success, we recommend multi-day itineraries.
• This experience respects the natural behaviors of wildlife; pumas are not fed or controlled in any way.
