TORRES DEL PAINE - available as an iPhone app, book for iPad and Kindle book
Patagonia is a rare spectacle. The majesty of the mountains and the splendour of the ice fields gives the region an impression of ‘finis terrae’, the end of the world. The sun shines in this scenic place and reflects unbelievable colours. It is thought that the name Paine comes from the Tehuelche (native language), where it means "pale blue", perhaps making reference to the colour of the many glaciers and lakes.

La Patagonia es un espectáculo extraordinario. La majestuosidad de sus montañas y el esplendor de sus campos de hielo transmiten al ser humano la sensación de encontrarse en el fin del mundo. El sol sale en este escenario pintoresco reflejando colores increíbles. Se cree que el nombre Paine viene del Tehuelche (lenguaje nativo) que significa azul pálido, quizá haciendo referencia al color de tantos glaciares y lagos.

Each product produced by WORLD ADVENTURE GUIDES has a guidebook section full of information, plus a suggested itinerary with a day-by-day guide explaining the route. You’ll get general statistics on time taken, amount of ascent and descent given in a route profile, and your altitude and distance.
The guidebook includes text and photos on places of interest, must-see views, ideas on where to stay, top tips, what equipment to take, Frequently Asked Questions, picture galleries and videos.
The app uses the GPS on your iPhone to track your position: use the ‘progress’ function to see ‘your’ time, distance travelled and height climbed as you make your journey. You can share all of these on your social networking sites at the end of each day.
The maps that have been used are GPS sourced by one of the team marking waypoints along each route and then hand drawn by the mapping team at Harvey’s. It is a process of dedication and attention to detail that ensures each map is accurate. Within each app are 17 layers of mapping ranging from 1:100,000 where you are able to see greater distances, down to 1:5,000 for some of the larger towns and villages.
