A large enclosed communal area is ideal for meeting other travellers and preparing food indoors.\u00a0 The bathrooms are uber special being very clean and modern design with ample hot water supply to enjoy after a long days hiking.\r\n

The good<\/h2>\r\nBathroom facilities were the best we encountered in our 2 months of travel. The communal area was well catered to allow you to cook and eat in comfort while meeting other guests. The car camping area had a set of fences to block the commonly fierce winds. Fresh water was also available to refill water tank reserves.\r\n

The bad<\/h2>\r\nThe price was more than we were used to but the facilities were good and we paying Argentinian prices. There were two horses at the campsite which seemed odd (again this is Argentina) but they were often loose and gave you a fright as they galloped around the corner unexpectedly! WiFi was advertised but a sign made it clear it was not available.\r\n

The awesome<\/h2>\r\nCamping El Relincho was in easy walking distance to all the El Chalt\u00e9n hikes. We walked out left to the Cerro Torres hike<\/a> and returned after completing the Cerro Fitz Roy<\/a> hike on one day.\r\n
