Explora will seek to continue the work began by the Tompkins Conservation Foundation in the area by adopting traveling practices that promote the exploration and knowledge of the territories with the purpose of ensuring conservation for future generations.
With a unique location, the Explora lodge at the Patagonia National Park is the perfect headquarter to visit the Aysén Region. We will develop off-the-beaten-track explorations, delving deep as never before in the knowledge of this region’s natural landscapes.
Our lodge is located in the Chacabuco Valley, within the Patagonia National Park. This is the perfect headquarter from where to go out and explore the Park’s wonders and all the surroundings of this part of Chilean Patagonia.
Our Lodge
Explora rooms at the Patagonia National Park are designed to make the best of silence and privacy, ensuring deep rest after one day of exploration. All our rooms are surrounded by Patagonia nature, with views to the pampa and gardens. To disconnect from everyday worries, everyday life must be left behind.
CONSTRUCTION
The lodge built by Douglas and Kristin Tompkins was inspired by landmark lodges located in national parks around the world. Local and recyclable materials were used with sustainable construction techniques. The lodge’s architecture is based on Patagonia’s geography and culture, with energy efficiency and sustainability.
OUR FOOD
Our dishes have been designed so that travelers can conduct different explorations always feeling well, active, and light. Based on the luxury of the essential, we look for pure flavors based on top-quality ingredients. Our dishes will always be paired with fine Chilean wines. We also offer a menu of Premium wines for those willing to try other options.
