day 327 – km 21470

cerro castillo – campamento torre s del paine

68,58km 588 alti meter on bike 10km 500 alti meter on foot

riding the bike in a national park is great, as you can stopp any moment you want for a break or a photo…

at first i entered the park on the wrong entrance, so i had to make a little detour. the roads in the park are ok gravel roads with lots of steep little climbs. (the private owned 7,5km road  to the place where the trail starts is not so good to ride with a heavy loaded bike/trailer) i left bike and trailer (for 1.000.- pesos per luggage) at the fancy hotel and hiked up to the free campground at the foot of the lookout. (once again my improvised hiking setup “long distance hiking is a head-thing”)
