In Brief

From October 8 to 15, 2026, an international motorhome meeting will be held in Los Alerces National Park (Chubut, Argentina). About 250 participants from Chile, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina are expected.

In Patagonia, near Los Alerces National Park, an international motorhome owners' meeting will take place from October 8 to 15, 2026. Around 250 people from Chile, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina are expected to attend. Organizers plan to distribute participants across different zones, including the Los Maitenes campsite and other park areas.

The event is organized by a motorhome association from Comodoro Rivadavia with support from the park administration and provincial authorities. The program includes cultural and gastronomic activities: performances by a military band, folk shows, traditional food tastings, and a visit to the tulip field in Trevelin, where 2.3 million tulips bloom during this period. The goal is to promote regional tourist attractions such as Los Alerces National Park, Piedra Parada and Corcovado.

In Argentina, illegal entry of 4x4 convoys into the Batea Mahuida Natural Protected Area has been reported. Local authorities say groups of SUVs, including tourists from Brazil, access restricted zones such as El Arco and Laguna Corazón, causing environmental damage. Lorenzo Lorente, president of the Villa Pehuenia Volunteer Firefighters Association, stated that caravans of up to 20 vehicles operate and avoid official rescue services to evade detection. This year, no access control has been implemented at the site, worsening the problem.

Meteorologist José Bianco has presented the interior of his motorhome, equipped for both travel and work. The vehicle features solar panels, expanded polyurethane insulation, double-glazed windows and an inverter air conditioner. Inside, there is a main bedroom with a large bed and a guest area with four sleeping places and a ceiling skylight. The living area converts into an additional bed, and the kitchen is compact but functional. Bianco uses the motorhome for trips to study weather phenomena and for remote work after leaving TN in 2026.

Demand for motorhomes and caravans in Argentina increased after the pandemic. Renting one costs USD 100–120 per day, higher than a three-star hotel. Fuel, insurance and a deposit for potential damage are additional. A used caravan costs USD 30,000–40,000, while a fully equipped motorhome ranges from USD 100,000 to 120,000. More than 10 rental companies operate in the country. The Expo Rodantear show is scheduled for October 22–25.

Irene and Carlos have lived together in a 10 sq m motorhome for three years. With no separate room to retreat to, they created a 'psychological space' that lets each have personal time. The couple also plans routes and overnight stops in advance to avoid conflicts caused by fatigue. They emphasize openly discussing issues and appreciating good moments.
