Salto Chico We were able to reach the waterfall from the property. But it was easy for us to forget about this waterfall considering the commanding panoramas of the Paine Massif and Los Cuernos del Paine over an aqua-bluegreen glacial lake to be had from practically anywhere we stood on the property. Indeed, we were easily lost in thought here simply staring at the falls, feeling the Patagonian winds, listening to the falls thunderously tumbling towards calmer waters, and gazing at the gorgeous panorama. Directions: Salto Chico and Explora en Patagonia was about 18km north of Hosteria Tyndall (where we were staying) on the main road or about 8km south of Salto Grande.
