Explora El Chaltén

Sitting on the north bank of the Electrico River, the lodge is surrounded by beautiful lenga and ñirre forests. The modular building was constructed in Mendoza and assembled on stilts to reduce environmental impact, its soothing earth tones and clear wood seamlessly blending with the forests around it. Common spaces are sophisticated yet cosy, and the bar and lounge have gorgeous views of the Marconi glacier through enormous picture windows. In the restaurant, you'll find a menu designed by famed Argentinian chef Pablo Jesús Rivero that makes a point of using locally-sourced products that pay tribute to the surroundings, whilst the spa is an ideal bolthole for some R&R after a long day on the ice.

The possibilities are almost endless at Explora El Chalten! The bespoke explorations are focused on providing everyone that stays with an in-depth experience of the spectacular region and every evening, you'll get to plan your day with one of Explora’s passionate guides. From hikes to overland adventures, rock climbing and mountain biking, there’s something in store for all levels and requirements. Overnight expeditions to the Southern Ice Field are also on offer, while thrill seekers may be seduced by a high mountain ascent adventure to Cerro Masden. Whatever you choose, you’ll want to go back for more.
