Near the southern tip of South America lies the Chilean Patagonia. Its amazing landscapes attract many travellers, especially lovers of the outdoors. Whether you are into hiking, adventure or landscape photography, it is definitely a bucket list destination.

But the mountains of Torres del Paine also hide a secret. A mysterious cat that roams these hills and valleys in the harsh conditions. The Puma (Puma concolor also known as Mountain Lion, Cougar).

This cinematic travel video captures the excitement of hiking in Torres del Paine tracking, photographing and filming these beautiful big cats, on foot in epic mountain landscapes - a wildlife photography dream.

Filmed during April/May 2022 in Chile, in Torres del Paine National Park and Estancia Laguna Amarga, where conservation efforts have turned this area into the best place in the world to see and photograph pumas.

My warmest thanks to:

Estancia Laguna Amarga and everyone at Estancia El Ovejero Patagónico.

Filmed mainly with a Canon 1Dx mkii and Canon 100-400 IS II.
