Travel to Patagonia - Hike, Asado, & Adventure

ABOUT THE PROPERTY

Set in a pristine Andean valley on the banks of the magnificent Rio Palena, Eleven®’s Rio Palena Lodge is your ultimate Patagonian adventure retreat. Our riverfront oasis features an array of angling and adventure offerings to ensure you experience the best of Patagonia’s Los Lagos region.

Rio Palena Lodge’s location in a region famous for large, wild, brown and rainbow trout, is highlighted by the home waters of the Palena; where you can wade or float right out the front door. Add in a myriad of rivers, lakes and streams plus a riverfront outpost on the Rio Futaleufú and you have the most dynamic fly fishing experience in South America. With adventure offerings like whitewater rafting, mountain biking and hiking, your entire group will have options to explore Patagonia in their own way. When you’re not exploring, relax in Eleven comfort and style. Rio Palena Lodge features seven en suite bedrooms, each with a stunning river view. Your private chef prepares creative breakfasts each morning, and savory lunches your guide will present riverside each afternoon.

On your return, kick-back on the deck overlooking the tranquil river while sipping a fine Chilean wine or Pisco Sour. Or unwind with a soak or steam in the wood-fired hot tubs and sauna. For dinner enjoy artistic presentations of fine beef, homemade pastas, grilled salmon, and locally-grown produce in the cozy dining room, or indulge in a special Chilean asado, a traditional barbecue paired with fine wines.
