Definitely keen, before I book on can I also check if you run any Huemel tours?

We don't offer the Huemul Circuit at this time, but it's an epic trek.

What is the fee for single occupancy?

Our single supplement fee is $390 for our Essential Patagonia expedition and includes solo rooms in hotels and when using tent accommodations (does not apply when using refugios). It looks like you're considering a February travel window. While we no longer have spaces available for February 3rd, we do have spots available on our Feb 13th Patagonia Highlights trip. For that option, the solo supplement is only $200.

How physical is the trek and what are the conditions like?

The trek involves carrying personal gear and facing potentially cold and windy weather conditions, with quick weather changes common in the area.

Can I book a custom or private trip?

Custom and private trips can be arranged based on personal preferences and physical abilities, with potential changes in itinerary and accommodations.

What happens in case of health issues during the trek?

If health issues arise, trek guides are equipped to provide first aid and coordinate further medical response if necessary.

Could you clarify the accommodations? Are we staying in refugio or outside tents while in the parks?

The 'Essential Patagonia' expedition is a combination of shared refugio accommodations and tent camping. For the tent camping, tents and sleeping pads are provided. You will need to bring your sleep bags.

What meal options are available during the trek?

Travelers need to carry personal snacks. Bulk food for meals is provided and managed by the trek operators.

Are there any opportunities to opt out of carrying a full pack during the trek?

Travelers can modify the itinerary to utilize transportation between locations instead of carrying packs, making the trek less physically demanding.

Is it necessary to carry a true backpack at times? Or just a day pack?

Can you please advise if possible to receive assistance with carrying the backpack throughout the trip for two?

What are the packing essentials for the trek?

The packing essentials include a backpack (45-60L), sleeping bag rated for 15 degrees F, water bottle, headlamp, personal toiletries, and appropriate clothing for cold and rainy weather.

An incredible trip with OneSeed - I was debating between this and a G Adventures tour and so glad I chose them! I had only three people in my group and the guide was the loveliest man, and so kind. It was the best way to do the W Trek and took out all of the stress! Highly recommend to all thinking of booking with this company! They were so good in the run up too, and even helped me with other parts of my Patagonia itinery.Show more

Our winter trek through Patagonia was an incredible experience! We basically had a private tour of the park, only seeing two other small groups the entire time... completely different from a summer experience. Our food, lodging, and itinerary was perfect. Our guide, Roberto, was very knowledgeable and patient when we wanted to stop and take pictures, yet he kept us on track. He planned everything perfectly as far as timing goes as the days are very short in the winter (9am-6pm). It was nice there was no wind in the winter, just cold/dry air. Our trip went very smoothly and it was clear that the logistics had been planned perfectly. I highly recommend the winter trek in Patagonia!Show more

  Can you please advise if possible to receive assistance with carrying the backpack throughout the trip for two?
- OneSeed ExpeditionsOperator•Written June 2024
  On Essential Patagonia, travelers carry the personal gear outlined on our packing list, along with any other personal items they bring along, in their packs along the trail. Most travelers find that a 45 - 60 L pack is sufficient, and most packs end up weighing 20 - 25 lbs / 10 kg, however, we have travelers bring lots of ultra light gear who come in under this, and travelers who bring lots of additional items and come in well over. Travelers DO NOT need to bring or carry a tent, sleeping pad (you do need to bring and carry a sleeping bag), cookware, serve ware, or bulk food for meals, just the items on the list.
