Explora Patagonia, Chile
A five-hour drive on some rather difficult roadways from the airport in Punta Arenas to Explora is in
itself a bit of an adventure. It looks like a white ship on the shores of Lake Pehoé. Explora Patagonia’s
unique location sets you accurately in the middle of Torres del Paine National Park in Chile. Stands just
yards away from the Salto Chico waterfall with the peaks of the Paine Massif looming just behind. The
fifty rooms and suites, and the associated public spaces are luxurious.
Over 50 different guided hikes and horseback rides take you through incredible views of glaciers,
lakes and mountains.
Tip: There aren’t any cell-phone networks! So it’s a completely secluded place; just be in the moment
and enjoy. Source: www.explora.com
