The French Valley day hike to Mirador Valle del Frances in Torres del Paine National Park is a must-do for nature lovers seeking stunning Patagonian scenery. The trail starts at the Paine Grande refugio and winds through rolling hills, turquoise lakes, and rocky slopes, offering breathtaking views of the French Glacier and Cerro Paine Grande along the way. With a moderate difficulty level and a round trip distance of 18.5 km, this hike takes about 7-8 hours to complete, making it a rewarding adventure for hikers looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Chilean wilderness.
