We will pick you up at your hotel in Puerto Natales, from where we will go to the Cueva del Milodón Natural Monument, one of the most important paleontological sites in South America, also known as one of the oldest human settlements in Patagonia.
Once there we will visit the famous Milodon cave, where Hermann Eberhard, the first settler of the province, discovered a piece of skin of a totally unknown animal, which some years later would be identified as a milodon, an extinct species.
Then we will visit the cave paintings of the sector Dos Herraduras sector, which date from 5 thousand years ago. From there we will visit the Silla del Diablo, a conglomerate of almost 40 meters high inserted in a beautiful natural environment, ideal to enjoy our picnic.
