Afterglow Expedition: Patagonia


Raw • Expansive • Untamed

Explore the the edge of the world in Chilean Patagonia on this 10-day retreat that blends the iconic W Trek, glacier kayaking, horseback riding, and yoga/breathwork practices designed to keep your body resilient and your mind grounded. You’ll spend your days hiking beneath granite peaks, paddling alongside ancient ice, crossing windswept valleys, and stepping just beyond your comfort zone — then slow down over warm meals in cozy mountain refugios, deep belly laughs, heartfelt conversations about the universe and meaningful connection beneath the vast Patagonian sky.

Who This Retreat Is For

This experience is designed for adventurous, active travelers who are comfortable hiking long days in mountain terrain and excited to experience Patagonia on foot.

You don’t need to be an ultra-runner or seasoned mountaineer, but you should arrive prepared for consecutive days of hiking, changing weather, uneven trails, and carrying a daypack. Some days on the W Trek will be long and challenging — and that’s part of the experience.

Remember, it’s not about being the fastest or strongest person on the trail. It’s about being willing to try, to grow, and to trust yourself in new terrain. Go beyond your limiting thoughts, beyond your conditioning and Step outside of your comfort zone to discover what you are truly capable of.

The Rhythm of the Journey

Each day is intentionally designed to balance challenge, exploration, and recovery:

  • 6 days self guided trekking the iconic W Trek through Torres del Paine National Park

  • 2 nights at Grey Glacier, giving us time to slow down and explore

  • A guided kayaking adventure on Lago Grey, paddling among glacial ice

  • A hike across the spectacular Grey suspension bridges

  • A full journey into the dramatic French Valley

  • A sunrise journey toward the iconic Base Torres

  • A recovery and integration day in Puerto Natales

  • A horseback riding and cultural experience with Estancias Patagonia

  • Yoga, breathwork, mobility, and reflection woven intentionally throughout the journey

Evenings on the trail are simple and grounding — warm meals, the communal nature of refugio life, tired legs, interesting conversation and a hot shower before another day outside.

Once we return to Puerto Natales, the pace shifts. We’ll have time to shower, recover, eat well, get a massage practice yoga together, explore town, and let everything we’ve experienced begin to settle in.
