El Chaltén is one of the destinations that watched us grow and became a sort of a cornerstone to our Travellers´culture. Those of us, who had the possibility of marvelling at its landscapes, know that along the way there are lodgings for every need and taste, that range from the most basic to the most sophisticated. Adding good experiences and new things we gave this place to: Patagonia Eco Domes.
Patagonia Eco Domes is located 16kms from El Chalten on route 23 to Lago del Desierto, surrounded by Nature and Mountains. This Eco Glamping is in a beautiful 3 hectares garden whose main attraction are the panoramic views to Cerro Fitz Roy.
It has 7 domes en-suite for 2 people with a private hallway and a “salamandra”(wood-burning stove), all of them with a view to Cerro Fitz Roy, 1 restaurant dome, 1 reception area dome + a living -room and a “Wellness Dome” where our Kallpa girls enjoyed a massage session and yoga lessons at an extra cost since they are not included in the rate. The domes have an alpine and geodesic style. All the domes have a stove to keep the rooms warm which beckons to us every time we come back from any activity in Chaltén . They also have a living-room and a private bathroom with Scottish shower.
Every morning we start our day enjoying a gourmet breakfast before starting on our walks. From Patagonia Eco Domes we have free access to a private trail that takes us to Laguna de los Tres. One of the most attractive trails due to the views it offers. You can also reach Piedras Blancas Glacier and others.
Patagonia Eco Domes has a bar and a restaurant with a varied cuisine and a good list of wines. They also have a garden and a solarium. They have no cellphone reception or internet at the premises. The idea is to break away from everyday life and enjoy El Chaltén. One of its most important aspects is the sustainability of electric energy which is provided by solar screens with an independent circuit per dome with a 12 volts power supply.
We highly recommend the Patagonia Eco Domes as a travel sales offer. It´s new and original and it´s different to other lodgings as well as being the only Glamping Camp in this area.
Important factors to take into account:
Mínimum of pax required: 1
Every dome has a 12 volts independent energy. They have no 220 volts wall sockets. In every dome you´ll find USB plugs to recharge your devices. Should you need a 220 volts recharge you can ask for it at the front desk. Community Domes have solar energy and a 220 volts circuit.
They also have free shuttle services to and from El Chaltén at: 9:30hs and 13hs for Check Out time and at: 12hs and 17hs for Check In time.
The restaurant is available for the guests. If they have any special diets they must inform it in advance.
Patagonia Eco Domes is located in a faraway area. There is no public transport and they do not take Credit Cards, that´s why we recommend to bring enough cash when checking in.
