Patagonia National Park

Chile
The Patagonia National Park was born to conserve and we will make every exploration a journey to conservation.

Patagonia National Park

Created by Douglas and Kristine Tompkins, the Patagonia National Park is an authentic hidden gem that exudes an intimate, peaceful and remote atmosphere. Here, nature flourishes in its most vibrant and thriving form, captivating visitors with pristine landscapes and extraordinary wildlife.

Located in the heart of Chile’s Carretera Austral, our lodge offers a unique experience of connection with nature.

In a barely explored sector with majestic mountains, Chile’s fastest-flowing rivers and lakes with unique colors and clarity, the variety and number of explorations is practically unlimited.

Our Lodge

Located in a privileged site, the Explora lodge offers you an intimate and private atmosphere in this sector of Patagonia. Here you will be able to disconnect and tour the different hills and valleys. The lodge is part of a self-sustainable project, so its building materials were stones from local quarries, recycled wood, and copper for the roofs.

Designed to provide silence, privacy, and space, giving you deep rest after exploring all day.

After a lifetime dedicated to the world of business, Douglas and Kristine Tompkins decided to dedicate themselves to ecology by buying land in Patagonia for its conservation and care.

We take you to and from the Balmaceda airport following a preestablished schedule, depending on flight times.

You can connect with a direct 45-minute flight to Cochrane if you prefer.

Relax in one of our three outdoor hot tubs as you enjoy the landscape or in one of our two massage rooms after a day of exploration.

In this area of estancias, we find inspiration for our menus in the gaucho culture. We offer different options that we renew day by day. Ours is a simple and autochthonous cuisine, where the main characters are the fire and the local products.

The purpose of our Explorations Center is to offer guidance regarding Patagonia National Park and the diverse array of activities accessible within this safeguarded region.

LODGE ATACAMA TERRITORY EXPERTISE

The lodge created by Douglas and Kristin Tompkins reflects what we beleive. Luxury is about having all the means necessary to make the most out of the experience, such as a cozy, welcoming environment, a local gastronomic experience and surrounded with remote and pristine nature.

This is why every Explora lodge behaves as a haven of rest and restoration amid the remote – to make sure each day in the territory is lived to the fullest.

Vast territories like Patagonia tend to be dotted with private enclosures and estates. These large portions of land are often simultaneously the most productive and economically attractive, while also offering some of the best potential for biodiversity conservation. Their safeguarding is therefore critical, as they cradle highly dynamic –and fragile– ecosystems

Present in the most precious locations of remote South America, we connect them all in an ever-exchanging network, so you can explore and discover in even greater depth.
With lodges in multiple positions across the continent, explorers can feel free to combine more than one destination in a single journey and craft a truly original and broad exploration experience.
