Set on the banks of the Eléctrico River under the massive Marconi Glacier, dramatic views abound at our modern 20-room lodge as well as a thoughtfully crafted experience that’s all about immersing you in Patagonia’s wilderness. Discover architecture that prioritizes the environment, comfortable accommodations and a beautiful spa, and a one-of-a-kind location in a private nature reserve with easy access to best-in-class Explorations.
Strategically built within the 14,000-acre Los Huemules Conservation Reserve — our long-standing conservation partners in the region — Explora El Chaltén offers a one-of-a-kind location in Argentine Patagonia. Perched on the Eléctrico River and wrapped in lenga and ñirre forests, the lodge is accessible to nearby Los Glaciares National Park and an ideal base camp for exploring the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, the world’s third largest fresh water reserve.
