However, for those looking for a little more comfort, EcoCamp offers two upgrade options which have varying prices depending on the time of year. With EcoCamp you must start the W Trek itinerary on a Sunday. The upgraded dome options are as follows:<\/p>\n<p>SUPERIOR DOMES (for max two people) that include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>heating<\/li>\n<li>private bathroom (With hot shower)<\/li>\n<li>electricity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>SUITE DOMES (for max 4 people) that include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>heating (small private wood burning stove)<\/li>\n<li>electricity<\/li>\n<li>private bathroom (with hot shower)<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0coffee maker<\/li>\n<li>larger space<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>PLEASE NOTE: all W-trek options with EcoCamp have one night in a Refugio that is in shared bunk rooms with other trekkers in your group and shared bathrooms.<\/p>\n<p>The price is all inclusive so it covers (transfers to\/from the park, all meals, 1 drink per night &#8211; you have to pay for additional drinks-, guides, etc).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_9113\" style=\"width: 6026px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9113\" data-attachment-id=\"9113\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/2018\/09\/17\/spring-adventure-torres-del-paine\/trip458-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?fit=6016%2C4016&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"6016,4016\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;11&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D600&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1481817145&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.00625&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"trip458\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Patagonia Camp (Yurts)&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?fit=640%2C428&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9113\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?resize=640%2C427\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?w=6016&amp;ssl=1 6016w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?resize=768%2C513&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?resize=1024%2C684&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip458.jpg?w=1920 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-9113\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Patagonia Camp (Yurts)<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/adventureswithinreach.com\/destination\/trip\/?trip=5-Day%20Patagonia%3A%20Torres%20del%20Paine%20Patagonia%20Camp\"><strong>2) 5-day Torres del Paine Patagonia Camp<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This option is the\u00a0 overall most affordable and also gives travelers quite a lot of flexibility.

The accommodations are luxury yurts. Each standard luxury yurt is for maximum 2 people (a third can be added but it is very cramped). The yurts are heated, have views of the park, private decks, and have private bathrooms with hot showers and baths. Guests can also upgrade to a superior luxury yurt that is for a maximum of 4 people, has all of the amenities listed above, as well a private outdoor hot tub and two private sleeping areas joined by a private bathroom.<\/p>\n<p>The price is all inclusive so it covers (transfers to\/from the park, all meals, alcohol, guides, etc).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_9114\" style=\"width: 2058px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9114\" data-attachment-id=\"9114\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/2018\/09\/17\/spring-adventure-torres-del-paine\/trip461\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?fit=2048%2C1388&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2048,1388\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"trip461\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;View from rooms at Explora&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?fit=640%2C434&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9114\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?resize=640%2C434\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?w=2048&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?resize=300%2C203&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?resize=768%2C521&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?resize=1024%2C694&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/adventureswithinreach.com\/travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/trip461.jpg?w=1920 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-9114\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">View from rooms at Explora<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/adventureswithinreach.com\/destination\/trip\/?trip=5-Day%20Patagonia%3A%20Torres%20del%20Paine%20W%20Trek%20with%20EcoCamp\">3) 5-Day Patagonia: Torres del Paine Luxury Explora<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The final of our three most popular Torres del Paine W Trek itinerary options is staying at Explora. This is a luxury lodge located in the very heart of the park with arguably the very best views. Staying at Explora it is all inclusive and travelers get to customize their stay and hand craft their experience and what they want to do while they are there. It is the top-notch adventure option in the park. All rooms are of course heated, have huge picture windows to look out at the mountains, beautiful views from their spacious bathtubs to observe the park as well and the stay is also 100% all inclusive. Here, like Patagonia Camp, guests can do all the segments of the W-trek as day-hikes, or, they can customize theur own days as they wish with skilled guides and drivers that will take them out to explore other hiking trails in the park.<\/p>\n<p>Want to start planning your next adventure to Torres del Paine and Patagonia?
