Torres Central is the newest, best equipped and therefore most expensive of the two, but both refugios have hot showers, camp sites, sleeping bag and tent hire, bars and lounge rooms.
Only Refugio Central has a restaurant, but it caters for both refugios.
Getting There
These two refugios are at the start of the Circuit Trek and the end of the W (hiking West to East). Fantastico Sur runs a shuttle to and from the park entrance at Laguna Amarga, where buses from Puerto Natales will drop you off.
Trekking Distances
To Refugio El Chileno: 2.5 km, 2 hours
