All-inclusive? Almost: full board
Patagonia Eco Domes is full board: the three meals of the day are included in your stay. The only thing that is extra is drinks; you choose your wine from our selection.
Also included: the wood-fired hot tub and the cold plunge, organic teas at any time, parking and, from two nights, the transfer from El Chaltén.
A day of meals at the lodge
This is a normal day:
- Breakfast
- A buffet, with Fitz Roy in the window, before you head out on the trail.
- Lunch
- A full packed lunch to carry in your backpack.
- Back from the trail
- Organic teas, whenever you like.
- Dinner
- Four courses in the Dining Dome, changing with the season.
Why full board makes sense here
We are 15 km from El Chaltén, in the forest. The village restaurants are a long way to drive there and back at night, after hiking all day. With full board you come back from the trail, stop at the hot tub, and have dinner a few steps from your dome.
What makes it eco: firewood, sun and a light footprint
Each dome is heated by its own wood stove, and so is the hot tub. The light comes from solar panels, dome by dome, at 12 V. The domes are light and rest on the ground among the lengas: we try to touch the forest as little as possible.
The water comes from a nearby spring: bring your own bottle to refill. The team lives on site all season, and more than ten years after the first summer, the forest is the same.

No signal: what is not included, on purpose
There is no phone signal and no wifi in the camp. We decided that in 2014. Every dome has USB ports to charge a camera.
It is not a five-star hotel
There is no spa, no room service and no television. There are eleven domes in the forest, each with a private bathroom and a wood stove, Fitz Roy in the window, a wood-fired hot tub and a kitchen waiting for you when you come back from the trail.
