Black Tomato: Wilderness Adventure in Patagonia

Image of the Wilderness in Patagonia

If you're like me and need to “get away from it all” once in a while, this excursion to the pristine wilderness of Patagonia is a must-do. Your destination is the UNESCO World Heritage site Torres del Paine National Park, about 250 miles north of Punta Arenas in Chile, a majestic landscape of peaks, plains, glaciers, lakes and waterfalls. I know what you're thinking: communing with nature, especially in such a remote region, means roughing it, right? Wrong. You don't have to sacrifice creature comforts to take a walk on the wild side with partner, Black Tomato—they put you up in the very stylish eco-hotel Remota as your Patagonian base.

Opened in 2005 and located by the ocean at Puerto Natales, Remota is sleek and contemporary, architect-designed, amazing sea or mountain views from all 72 rooms, and a chic restaurant serving freshly caught seafood and top Chilean wines. But don't get too comfortable. Expert local and bilingual guides will escort you on a variety of thrilling excursions and activities from trekking up glaciers to exploring some of the most dramatic scenery on the planet. At the end of each day, relax in Remota's heated pool and Finnish spa followed by a glacier-cold beer or cocktail. Nature never looked so good.
