Every year\u00a0Torres del Paine National Park\u00a0receives hundreds of thousands of visitors from all over the\u00a0world\u00a0in search of adventure and pristine landscapes. So, have you ever wondered just how it remains so pristine? Prospective travellers can rest assured that they will be met with the untamed beauty they are searching for, despite its growing popularity.<\/p>\n

Protecting the wilderness of the park is at the very heart of\u00a0Hotel Las Torres<\/a>, which is situated at the foot of the famous \u2018Towers\u2019 and whose history stretches as far back as 1979. Maintaining this vast expanse of land requires many committed hands and a whole lot of love.\u00a0Hotel Las Torres\u00a0works in partnership with a not-for-profit organisation called\u00a0AMA<\/a>\u00a0to make sure the park remains sustainable into the future. On top of critical conservation activities such as trail maintenance and waste management, AMA also engages in scientific research and provides essential educational services. They regularly work with Chilean schools to improve environmental awareness through \u201cexpeditionary\u201d programs. They also manage the hotel\u2019s Interpretative Centre, where they host scientific lectures, documentary screenings and other events to share unique insights with the wider public, employees and travellers. AMA relies on the hard work of many local and international volunteers and we want to thank them all for keeping one of the worlds most treasured destinations pristine!<\/p>\n
