Journey

Remota is a luxury lodge that incorporates the Patagonian environment into its concept. The lodge is designed to both mimimize the impact on the eco system and blend aesthetically within the patagonian pampas. You may even notice a sheep or two grazing pastorially outside the vaulting windows. Additionally, all of their 30 daily excursions are structured sustainably. Tours can be done by vehicle (4x4), horseback, bicycle, or walking, sailing the fjords; it all depends on the guests preference and the area they would like to visit. The rooms are large at 334 sq. feet with modern furnishings. Remota also features spacious and comfortable common areas, heated indoor pool, sauna, outdoor hot-tubs and spa. A perfect stay for those that wish to explore more than Torres Del Paine and see parts of Patagonia that few tourists have visited. Conveintly located on the outskirts of Puerto Natales. 

Activities

Trekking

There are a number of trekking opportunities, from leisured walks to difficult scramble - a hike through the Valle of Ascencio and up to the Base of Las Torres is without a doubt a challenge to anyone that likes trekking.

Mountain Biking

There are also a few different mountain biking excursions -Balmaceda Lake, Obstruction Sound . and Torres Del Paine to name a few. Be ready to cross great Patagonian ranches (estancias), peat-moors, old lenga forests and blue lagoons.

Horseback Riding

A trip to Patagonia wouldn't be complete without jumping on the back of a trusted stead.

Kayaking

There are two different kayaking excursions available. Choose between navigating between icebergs on Grey Glacier or through the historic Los Pioneros Fjord.

Boat

There are two different boating excursions available. One to the Last Hope Sound inside of Bernardo Higgins National Park and one Lake Grey, where you may see a glacier calf.

Climbing

For those with a taste for adrenaline, you will have the opportunity to summit Cerro Castillo (Castle Mount) from where we will have a panoramic view of a great part of the province. One of the most challenging excursions but at the same time rewarding, of the Remota experience.

Place

Remota is located near the Southern Patagonian ice field in Puerto Natales, Chile. Puerto Natales is the largest town in the area and the jumping off point for many excursions into Patagonia including Torres Del Paine, approximately 2 hours away. One of the advantages of staying at Remota is that it offers not only trips into Torres Del Paine, but also activities of a wider nature like trips to the Milidon Caves, visits to Gauchos at Estancias and excursions to Bernando Higgins National Park.

Most people complete the W-Trek during the southern hemisphere's spring through fall months, between October and March. It is also possible to complete the trek in winter, but a guide is recommended. Peak travel is in January and February. Expect rain almost daily, along with sun, possible snow and high wind. In fact, just expect all four seasons in one day.
