Tres Virgenes Cabanas

edevart - 11-21-2016 at 12:30 PM

Hi All - I remember in the past some chatter about there being some kind of ecotourism project at Tres Virgines, including some cabins for nightly rental. Does anybody have any information about this place? Does it exist and is it operational? Any contact info? Thanks!

Hard to search as there are so many variations on the name. I first posted about the signs for the "hotel" and geothermal plant back in 2007 (new paved road to it at Km. 33).

Many photos (linked in post): http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=50114

Contact info for the cabins (from 2010), photo links are no longer working: http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=49371

Okay you two (Dennis, Udo)... let's not sidebar the thread unless you give some balance of data!

edevart: There is a very nice (high-end) restaurant in La Paz with the name Tres Virgenes, opened by a Baja Nomad named JESSE.

We stayed there about four years ago. The cabins were very basic and expensive. Back then the main users were big horn sheep hunters and there was a set price knowing they are big spenders. I think it was 50 bucks a night including dinner. The setting is beautiful and we did a guided hike down a canyon the next day which was well worth it. They said it was no problem just camping outside for free too. I imagine things have changed in the past few years but it is a beautiful spot off the beaten path worth visiting. I`ll post pics later if I can find them.

50 per night doesn't sound too bad. Does "basic" mean no water?

50 usd a nite, incl dinner, is not expensive, especially given the quality of the location.

The facebook page for the cabins shows that today's rates are 300 pesos per night, saying nothing about meal cost.

Really neat guys used to run it - I have no idea if it is still functional but the next time we head south, we can sure check it out.
