Mirador Los Cuernos

Day 8: Mirador Los Cuernos
We take the 08:00 shuttle to Laguna Amarga and then find seats in another bus to Pudeto.
The wind warning system at the start of the hike (a wooden arrow indicating a colour: green < 50 km, yellow 50-80 km, red, trail closed above >80 km) indicates yellow. The hike is easy with a beautiful waterfall and view of the famous two coloured Los Cuernos. An young Asian man seems to believe that because he « has a bus to catch » he can take our spot for a better view or demand to read the explanation signs we are just reading before us (because, you know, the bus or actual entitlement). Of course, you saw it coming, his bus was an hour later than ours and we had 2 hours wait after the hike.
On the way back, the winds get stronger but we find a sheltered spot for lunch close to the catamaran harbour. While enjoying the sun we met the Swiss couple again, who had to stop their W trek because of strong winds and Zelie’s knee hurting. They get seats in the same bus of us and we exchange numbers to go to dinner together. They end up being a little too late so we reschedule for the following night and we just relax for this first night in Puerto Natales.Read more
