The best shelter is a BLUE BOX

In the mountains of El Bolson there are many places to visit if you want to connect with the nature in adventure’s excursions. In the mountains there are shelters.Where you can relax, sleep one night and get ready for the next day, these shelters are pretty rustic and deteriorated; some  don’t have lights, bathroom or running water. But when the night arrives the shelters are a good option to spend the night.

One of the best shelters, and of course a nice place to visit is “El Cajon del Azul”, this place is so beautiful because of landscape; it takes about 6 hours to arrive to the shelter, you have to cross 3 bridges, are very insecure in my opinion and the wood is so rotten, when you are crossing the river you have the sensation that the bridge is going to brake up. Half way down the  trail there is a place as a beach where you can relax for a moment near the river.

When you arrive to the shelter you ´ll find a nice place with all the basic services: a bathroom with shower,, electricity, food,  entertainment, and of course a second floor with beds mattresses. Nevertheless, the shelter it’s pretty cold, and of course if you haven’t got winter clothes provably you are going to have a bad night. One  thing about this shelter is that with all the services it provides it  may have lost the adventure  essence; you may feel so comfortable you won’t want to do anything t but stay in the shelter and you may lose many interesting activities.

So in a conclusion, if you want to have a relaxed day in the mountain we recommend you the shelter in El Cajon Del Azul, but if you want to relly connect with the nature, feel the adventure and have a good rough experience, we recommended you to visit the shelter in Mount Lindo one of the worst shelter in El Bolson.
