WHAT FITNESS TRAINING ?
Cardiovascular endurance — the most critical factor
You’ll be walking 6–10 hours per day for multiple consecutive days, often with sustained elevation gain.
You should be able to:
-
Hike continuously for 5–7 hours with short breaks
-
Climb 600–900 meters of elevation gain in a single day
-
Maintain a steady pace on uneven terrain
-
Recover overnight and repeat the effort the next day
Benchmark test:
If you can hike 15–20 km in one day with elevation gain while carrying a daypack (5–8 kg) and still feel functional the next morning, you’re on the right track.
Leg strength and muscular endurance — essential for climbs and descents
Torres del Paine trails include:
-
Long ascents on loose rock
-
Steep descents that strain knees
-
Constant uneven terrain
You should comfortably handle:
-
800–1,200 meter ascent/descent days
-
Repeated downhill walking without knee pain
-
Continuous movement for hours without muscle fatigue collapse
Weak quads and glutes are the #1 reason people struggle.
