The 'Magic Mountain' Lodge is located in the heart of the Chilean Huilo-Huilo nature reserve. This fantastical structure makes travellers feel like they have stepped into a fairy tale or a hobbit's shire thanks to its whimsical design concept.
Built to resemble a mountain, this hotel features a stone exterior facade that boasts moss covered walls. The South American retreat is reminiscent of something that can be seen in popular literary adaptation Lord of the Rings and proves to create a lasting experience for its visitors.
Immersed into the gorgeous Chilean landscape, the 'Magic Mountain' Lodge
features warm interiors that are built by local craftspeople using local wood materials. In addition to its memorable appearance, this world-class retreat also features mini golf, dining, sauna and tree trunk carved bath experiences for its guests.
