PUERTO NATALES
The town serves as a hub for preparing to trek the Torres del Paine. You can get everything you need here, but the prices are not cheap. Try to bring most gear from a bigger city.<\/p>\n

Accommodations:
Hostal de los Castillos<\/u>– Pretty good but some rooms are nicer than others. Tel. (56-61) 413641<\/p>\n

*There are lots of hotels\/hostels but they book up really fast so try to make a reservation ahead of time.<\/p>\n

Dining:
Masay<\/u>– great sandwiches (skip the pizza), located at Manuel Bulnes 427.<\/p>\n

Transportation:
Flights<\/u>– limited direct service run by Sky Airlines.<\/p>\n

Buses Gomez<\/u>– to get to Torres del Paine, depart at 7:00 and 14:30, book in town and they will pick you up at your accommodation, www.busesgomez.com<\/p>\n
