A former fly-fishing lodge on the banks of the Rio Palena, this secluded hillside hideaway nestles in an Andean valley in a remote region of northern Patagonia. Part of the Eleven Experience collection, the lodge reflects the brand’s mission to create “best-day-ever” memories through personalised, world-class adventure. Surrounded by undiscovered and pristine terrain, it’s an ideal base for exploring the region’s backcountry trails and wild landscapes year-round.
Infused with understated elegance, the lodge is a haven of cosy warmth and hospitality after a day outdoors. Wi-Fi is available throughout. Guests can revive aching limbs in the wood-fired sauna and the hot tubs set along the riverbank, before settling into the lounge with a hand-crafted cocktail or Pisco Sour in front of a blazing fire. The staff are exceptional, and the atmosphere is intimate and relaxed.
There are seven suites and guestrooms sleeping a maximum of 16 guests, each individually furnished and decorated with traditional Chilean artworks, textiles, and tiles. The food is superb: a chef-prepared breakfast, gourmet picnic lunches, tasty afternoon snacks, and modern Chilean dinners served around the communal table. An excellent range of Chilean wines accompanies each meal.
Activities at Rio Palena include white-water rafting, hiking, stand-up paddleboarding, and mountain biking. Rates include pre-arrival planning with an Eleven Experience Manager, chef-prepared meals, house alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, and ground transfers from Palena or Chaitén.
