Information on EcoCamp
Located in the heart of Torres del Paine, the EcoCamp consists of tented igloo-type domes built to minimize the environmental impact while providing a comfortable setting and maximum exposure to nature. There is electricity available for charging just camera batteries (voltage: 220 Volts at 50 Hertz, two round pins plug). Food at the EcoCamp has the same quality as the one you will have on a family dinner at your home, this means it is plenty and delicious!
The standard domes have a 4m/12ft diameter vitrified wooden floor and a height of 2.1m/7ft allowing two persons to sleep and stand comfortably inside. They are resistant to the strongest Patagonian winds, rains, and snow, and come equipped with two single beds (doubles on request), fleece sheets, blankets, feather quilts and organic elements for decoration. They also have a panoramic window and come coated with white canvas which allows plenty of sunlight inside.
