As the current trekking season in Torres del Paine slowly comes to an end, many hikers are already starting to plan for the next one. If you’re hoping to visit during the 2026/2027 season, it’s worth thinking about reservations sooner rather than later.
When do Torres del Paine reservations open?
Reservations for the new trekking season usually begin opening sometime between April and June.
However, bookings rarely open all at once. That’s because accommodation inside Torres del Paine is managed by two different companies, and each provider releases their reservations on its own schedule.
Because of this, it’s common for some campsites to become available earlier while others are still closed for bookings.
Stay updated when reservations open

Accommodation providers in Torres del Paine
Accommodation along the W Trek and O Trek is operated by two providers:
Vertice Patagonia, which manages the campsites and refugios at:
- Paine Grande
- Grey
- Dickson
- Los Perros
Las Torres Patagonia, which manages:
- Torres Central & Norte
- Chileno
- Cuernos
- Francés
- Serón
If you’re planning a multi-day trek, you will always need reservations with both companies, since each operates different parts of the trail.
What to do if only some campsites are available
Because the two providers release reservations separately, it’s common that only part of the campsites along your route are available at first. This can make planning the full itinerary a bit difficult early in the booking season.
On TorresHike.com, we try to make this easier.
If one provider has already opened reservations, you can book those campsites right away. At the same time, we display the structure and prices from the previous season for the campsites that have not opened yet. This allows you to see the full route and plan your itinerary even before all reservations are available.
Once the remaining provider opens their booking system, we will notify you by email so you can complete the rest of your reservation directly through your account.
That said, it’s important to keep in mind that booking the first part of your itinerary does not guarantee that the remaining campsites will be available later. When the second provider opens their reservations, availability may already be limited for some dates.
For this reason, we usually recommend securing the campsites that are already available if they fit your plans, but waiting to finalize flights or other fixed travel arrangements until your full itinerary is confirmed.
If you prefer to avoid this uncertainty altogether, the other option is simply to wait until both providers have opened reservations and then book your entire route at once.
