camino abierto camp sites: Fitz Roy camping

Have never camped before. Used a local trip organiser Caminoabierto.com.ar who have igloo tents errected with sleeping bags and liners. Also a food tent with a chef providing three meals a day (a boxed lunch) facilities basic ie toilet and no showers/sinks etc but plenty of glacial water. Enjoyed the experience and will do again. stayed at Capri Lagoon two nights and one night Laguna Torre

Unique Quality: Felt more at one with nature, could use the campsite as a base for the treks

Cabanas Arco Iris Hostel: New hostel

Hostel new, cleaned up, economic, to the reception buses for other destinations can be bought to tickets, taken electrical worker for every bed, therefore while it is slept can recharge in emergency batteries...

Unique Quality: If it is wanted to be visited the park is useless and expensive to remain to El Calafate, council a travel in bus of some hour in order to catch up El Chalten, where free of charge and without to depend on nobody places in wonderful places can be made one interesting series of trekking (Cerro Tower, Fitz Roy) and be camped along the distances in some camping.

Los Notros: The best place

Unique Quality: I did not stay there (I was at El Calafate, the nearer town), but "Los Notros" is really famous for the high quality of the services and the beauty of the place.
I took the picture from the website (wich is really good).

No me alojé allí (yo estaba en El Clafate, el pueblo más cercano), pero "Los Notros" es realmente famoso por la calidad de sus servicios y la belleza del lugar.
Bajé la foto del sitio web (la cual es realmente bueno).
