    I just got back home on Friday. IT WAS AMAZING!!! The whole trip was wonderful, including cosy warm Ecocamp, the guides Rodrigo and Roberto, the fantastic weather ( I thought you had wind and rain in Patagonia!!) we were so lucky, and of course the scenery. I think you and Cascada did an excellent job. All pick-ups from airports and hotels were there on time. I have been on many trips before with other companies in other countries, but you delivered what you promised, a positive, environmentally responsible, unforgettable experience. The day we hiked to the base of the Torres del Paine is a day I shall treasure for ever. I also made some great new friends and our age span was 30-72! Thank you Ceci, you gave me total confidence before I left and I returned home with it. Where to next year, Cec? Kind regards, and heartfelt thanks, muchas gracias, David

    I did want to tell you how FANTASTIC our trip was! Thank you for all of your help and encouragement in putting it together. Our guide Cristian Silva was excellent - very informed and very experienced and put a lot of effort into making sure that I had the food I needed based on my dietary needs! Thank you again! I have been recommending EcoCamp to everyone left and right. It is a beautiful facility! Hope all is well! Take great care!! Saludos! Ciao! Shari Goldsmith:)

    Estamos ahora in Francia llorando su pais ! Nos viaje a Torres del Paine fue super ! I swicth to English which is easier for me. We have been very pleased with Ecocamp : the concept of respecting the environment, and having the sensation of a private camp was excellent. The two guides Isabel and Maïcha have been so nice, interesting and careful for us. they got along with our son as well as with us. The level of the treck, I am speaking for me, was well described.The lanscape is so magnificent that it was a joy to discover a new spot every day. we really enjoyed our 5 days and it has been a perfect way to finish our discovery of the country. If I have something to say, it is that this prestation of high quality, concerning the ecology and the sport spirit, is expensive. I am happy to have been able to afford it but I regret that it cannot be accessible for more people because when you add the airplane from Europe and in Chili, this is really an expensive trip. This will be the only reason which prevents me to recommend it to some of our friends who are visiting Chile. . Thank you for everything ! You have a great country with great people.

Itinerary

We get up early to start our skiing adventure. The transfer pick us up about 7 am and we start driving towards the Andes Cordillera. Once we leave behind the city streets we will follow a beautiful winding road going up to the ski center. As we drive the road we get amazed with breathtaking views of the Andean white picks hugged by crystal clear blue skies. There are immense snowed mountains as far as ours eyes can see!

 

As the road conditions were good we arrive at Valle Nevado around 9 am. We start to feel excited… we choose our ski equipment, receive an explanation of the ski center and check the map showing the slopes, and then we are ready to start our skiing day!

 

If one of us wants ski lessons it can be arranged on our own. There is a team of more than eighty bilingual instructors of different nationalities and we can choose the most entertaining way to learn how to ski or snowboard.

 

After trying the first slopes we take a break around midday to rest and have a delicious lunch at Don Giovanni Restaurant, a culinary pleasure offering a selection of delicious gastronomic specialties.  Now that our energies are recovered, we are ready to go on with the rest of the day.

The second half of the day will be the most exciting and we continue sliding down in any of the multiple slopes covering 2,000 acres of Valle Nevado. We ski until 17:00 hrs time when the lifts stop working. Then with the rewarding exhaustion of a full day of skiing in these astonishing mountains the transfer will take us back to Santiago reaching our hotel about 19:00 hrs.
