About EcoCamp
Setting
EcoCamp is situated a short walk from the trailhead of the base of the towers trek. The geodesic domes have panoramic views of the towers, which turn warm shades of orange and pink as the sun sets behind them.
The atmosphere at the camp is very relaxed and sociable, with areas indoors and outdoors to hang out and unwind after a day of hiking.
Domes
Domes are immersed in lenga forest, dotted around the site and interlinked by wooden walkways. They are made to resist the Patagonian elements and have ceiling windows to look up at the starry night sky.
Standard domes offer more basic accommodation but are cosy and snug. Superior and suite domes are larger, with private bathrooms and heating.
Suite domes lofts have even more space and a mezzanine level with an extra bed, so they are perfect for families or groups of friends.

Yoga
Located in the heart of the park and surrounding wilderness, EcoCamp is an ideal place to practise yoga and connect with the magnificent Patagonian landscapes.
The yoga dome hosts daily group yoga sessions in the morning and early evening. Private classes are also available.
Massage
The latest addition to EcoCamp is a massage dome. There is an onsite massage therapist who offers a range of treatments for guests. This cosy pod-like structure provides the ultimate relaxation with views out over the park whilst maintaining complete privacy. Massages can be booked at an additional cost.

Sustainability
EcoCamp, the region’s first fully-sustainable travel accommodation, has gained an award-winning reputation for its eco-friendly policies. It minimises the footprint of visitors in Torres del Paine National Park through its implementation of green technology.
The camp is focused on energy efficiency, but the little energy that is used onsite is generated from 100% renewable sources – a micro-hydro turbine and photovoltaic panels. Electricity is limited and only available to guests for charging camera batteries and laptops. Composting toilets, and bringing as little paper, tin and plastic into the wilderness as possible, are all ways the camp reduces its impact on the environment. All waste brought in is recycled.
The camp uses local products and employs staff from the area in its social commitment to the region. It is also a supporter of the Legacy Fund, which runs projects that improve the environment, the community, and the tourism in Torres del Paine.
Sydney says
The guides at EcoCamp think of themselves as hosts welcoming you into their home, and the entire place brims with conviviality and warmth - it has the spirit of a backpackers’ hostel, but with much better beds!
