History & Philosophy

Since the beginning of the 20th century the Paine Massif and its surrounding landscapes have impressed hundreds of travelers, expeditioners and settlers. Since its origin, this protected area was not only designed for conservation but also for tourism and the enjoyment of people.

During the last three decades Torres del Paine National Park has seen an increasing number of visitors, which has led to the implementation of CONAF in 1992 (the park’s current administrator) and also a private concession system for the management of public land.

Vértice S.A. was founded in 2002 after winning the public bid for the concession of lodging and food services at the Paine Grande sector of Torres del Paine National Park, a critical stopping point for the park’s many hiking trails.

Years later, in 2009, Vértice S.A. was granted the concessions of Grey, Dickson and Perros becoming one of the main concessionaires of Torres del Paine National Park and serving more than 50,000 visitors each year.

Today, at Vértice S.A. we are constantly developing and adapting to the growing demand, which has led us to incorporate new services and travel options for our guests including: Vértice Travel and Factoria Patagonia. We continue to expand our horizons to position ourselves as a reference, not only for Torres del Paine National Park, but for all of Patagonia and the rest of Chile.

With years of experience in Patagonia, we know and believe that travel is a transformative experience that positively marks our lives. For this reason, we enjoy accompanying our clients from start to finish to plan, live and remember their trips forever.

Our services and products combine adventure, challenge, discovery and disconnection. We are constantly looking for new trends and always stay true to our values of austerity and professional efficiency.

We are team-oriented and have a strong vocation for service. With responsibility, security, creativity and passion we plan and deliver travel experiences full of unique moments at extraordinary destinations.

We respect and take care of our environment, we are conscious with our thoughts and actions and we hope to preserve our country’s natural beauty for generations to come.

We want to be the best ambassadors not only for Patagonia but for all of Chile and every day we strive to make each travel experience a “reality that exceeds your dreams!”
