Hotel Estancia El Ovejero Patagónico sits in Cerro Castillo, a small ranching village 60 kilometres north of Puerto Natales and the last stop before Torres del Paine National Park. The family behind it has worked this corner of the pampa for decades, and the rooms are simple and cosy, with wooden floors and heating, plus a buffet breakfast in the restaurant each morning. Days are for hiking, horse riding and condor spotting in the park and beyond, and the Argentine border is a short walk away, handy if El Calafate is next. Friendly, unfussy and very well placed…




Scanning the big Patagonian skies for condors, with the national park less than an hour down the road.
