German Antarctic Receiving Station or GARS O'Higgins is a German polar research station in Antarctica.[1]
It is located at Cape Legoupil on the Antarctic Peninsula on the six-hectare Isabel Riquelme islet, also known as Schmidt Peninsula. The islet is 300 m wide and 200 m long, 50 m from the mainland, with a land connection at low tide.
The station stands on rock suitable for geodetic long-term observations. The living, sleeping and working rooms of the campaign teams, as well as most of the station's equipment, are located in a main station building consisting of fifteen 20-foot ISO containers, and an infrastructure complex consisting of twenty 20-foot ISO containers.
