The 4-day Torres del Paine package, day by day

Pumas in Torres del Paine: the private puma tracking tour

According to the park administration, Torres del Paine and its surroundings hold "one of the most significant puma populations globally", and puma watching has grown "exponentially" in recent years, as stated in its 3 September 2026 notice. CONAF lists the puma among the park's 25 mammal species. To look for them with a guide, Civitatis sells a private outing from Puerto Natales.

Source: Civitatis listing, 9 November 2026. "From" price in Chilean pesos; it is a private tour, only for your group. Park entry is not included, under-18s are not allowed and cancellation is free up to 30 days before (after that, 50% back up to 15 days before and 25% up to 7 days before). Seeing a puma is not guaranteed: the only published review says they had no luck with pumas.

  • If you meet a puma: stay calm, don't approach or run, back away slowly while facing it, stand tall, make noise and pick children up, according to the park's 2026 recommendations.
  • Forbidden: feeding or disturbing wildlife, pumas included, and flying recreational drones, under the park rules.
  • Not at night: CONAF forbids walking the trails without daylight and warns that at dusk there is a risk of puma attack (CONAF page).
  • By car: the park asks visitors not to park in unauthorised spots to watch pumas, because of congestion and the risk of being hit (park notice).
