Frequently Asked Questions about Patagonia

Accommodation

What is the difference between a refugio and a campsite in Torres del Paine National Park?

A refugio offers beds in shared rooms with bedding, hot showers, electricity, and meal services (full board or half board).

A campsite can be:

  • Fully equipped: includes a pre-pitched tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping pad.
  • Basic: only the space to set up your own tent.

Campsites also have access to bathrooms and hot showers, and campers can purchase the same meal services available at refugios.

Fully equipped campsites are a great middle-ground option between comfort and price.
