El Perro Negro's Day to Day Ramblings

Refugio del Fraile is a old fashioned, and at first sight, a somewhat run down mountain refuge that screams "Old Patagonia". It hasn't changed that much in 19 years. The campsite is in a sheltered wood and there are some large wooden buildings that serve as a toilet block and a store shed. We used to cook in the corrugated iron shacks outside that offered some protection from the rain. The refuge sells beer, wine and mountain hearty meals

Our red tent is pitched just inside the refuge boundary, surrounded by trees and protection from the winds
