Sustainability
We are keen in the protection of the environment and sustainability of the wonderful nature that surrounds us.
provide the energy for the entire Lodge. The warmth of our homes heating of living rooms, bathrooms and bedrooms is mainly with doublé combustion stoves using the wood of fallen trees of our surrounding forests. The hot water for showers in the lodge comes from our main Hergom wood stove that heats the water and has a 500 liter accumulation tank that distributes hot water to every bathroom.
The patience that a patagonian lamb requires to achieve its perfect cooking point, and the stories that are shared around the fire summarize the philosophy of the local people who colonized this place in southern Chile and Argentina. At Barraco Lodge we place special emphasis on local ingredients, most of the vegetables we consume are grown in our own organic garden, a process in which our passengers can participate if they wish. Among the specialties of the Puelo area are the Patagonian Lamb Roast, the Wild Boar and Deer Roast, the Chilote Curanto and the different preparations that our clay oven allows us. We also have multiple options for vegetarians and different preparations based on morchella (wild mushroom typical of the puelo valley).
