EcoCamp is situated in the very heart of Torres del Paine National Park and provides the region’s first fully sustainable accommodation, complete with green technology. You enjoy guided treks and wildlife excursions by day and share evening meals with new friends, before falling asleep gazing up at the star-filled sky through your dome ceiling. Wake up in the middle of the Patagonian wilderness in a cozy geodesic dome, with a panoramic view of the majestic Torres del Paine, ready to pick up the hiking trail!
In the morning, you will be picked up by a local representative either from Punta Arenas or Puerto Natales and taken to EcoCamp Patagonia, located in the world-renowned Torres del Paine National Park. Upon arrival at the Eco Camp, you will be immediately greeted by the breathtaking beauty of our surroundings. The camp blends seamlessly with the natural environment, and the eco-friendly design of the lodging domes is inspired by the traditional huts built by the Kawesqar, the indigenous people of the region. Don't let their simple appearance fool you - these domes offer comfort and protection from the elements.
After settling in, we gather for a delicious dinner and a warm welcome from our hosts. Over the course of the evening, we receive a comprehensive briefing on the exciting activities available both at the camp and in the surrounding park. Whether you're interested in hiking, kayaking, or simply taking in the stunning natural beauty, our knowledgeable guides will help you plan your adventure.
*While most activities are included in your stay at our Eco-camp, a limited number of extra cost activities are available for you to choose from. These optional activities are at your discretion, and any fees associated with them will be paid locally.
Note: The available activities depend on a weekly schedule, with three different options offered every day, ranging from easy to difficult. For details on the activities offered on the specific dates of your travel, please inquire with your booking agent.

Following a nourishing breakfast, we embark on a scenic walk from EcoCamp to Hostería Las Torres, where we commence our ascent of Ascencio Valley on the eastern face of the Towers. The trail leads us through a variety of breathtaking landscapes, including arid mountain areas, beech forests, and tranquil streams. Our journey culminates as we navigate the challenging moraine, a boulder-strewn terrain that leads us to one of the world's most renowned viewpoints, offering a stunning panoramic view of the Torres del Paine (2,850 m/ 9,350 ft), a trio of imposing granite monoliths created by glacial erosion. After a rewarding uphill climb, we are treated to a full view of the majestic Towers and a glistening glacial lake below. What could be more fitting than having lunch in such a remarkable location? We pause to admire the scenery and enjoy our picnic before retracing our steps through Ascencio Valley and returning to EcoCamp.
Today, we commence our adventure with a scenic drive through the park, soaking in the breathtaking views of Paine Grande's snowy peaks and the black, granite spires of Los Cuernos. At Pudeto Dock, we pause to drop off Grey Trek travelers and capture photographs of the abundant guanacos, Andean condors, and unique flora.
Our journey continues with a leisurely stroll along the shores of Lake Pehoe, where we witness the powerful Salto Grande waterfall, formed as Lake Nordenskjold spills into Pehoe. Next, we ascend to Grey Lake and explore its stunning beach. A delightful box lunch awaits us by the lake before we embark on a boat tour across the icy waters, towards the towering blue walls of Glacier Grey, offering an incredible close-up view of the glacier.
Please note that the Grey Glacier boat tour is subject to availability and weather conditions. It is essential to confirm your reservation to participate on the day of your arrival. During the shoulder season (September, October, April), the boat trip may be canceled if the boat's minimum passenger requirement of 15 is not met. In such cases, we will organize an alternative excursion in the park.
After your final breakfast at the lodge, you will depart Eco Camp aboard their shared shuttle service to be transferred to the airport for your onward travels. Eco camp includes transfers to either Punta Arenas, Puerto Natales or a bus to El Calafate depending on your itinerary.
Note: The shuttle to Punta Arenas departs between 8am and 10am and stops in Puerto Natales along the way. For flights departing earlier than 3pm, an early drop-off service must be booked for an additional cost.
