Birding, Photography, Wine, and Craggy Peaks. Torres del Paine National Park.

Embark on a journey with photography expert Krisztina Scheeff to capture compelling images of birds and other wildlife amid the dramatic landscapes of Chile’s central and Patagonian regions. Your adventure begins in the cosmopolitan capital of Santiago; search for a variety of endemic avifauna in nearby natural areas, including marsh, reservoir, and dry forest habitats, and sample a few of the country’s acclaimed wineries. Encounter pelagic species and waterfowl on the coast before making your way to the breathtaking vistas of Torres del Paine National Park, where rolling plains, waterfalls, lakes, and glaciers are framed by sky-scraping Andean peaks.
