Trekking First Inhabitants Route

We invite you to travel back in time on a trek along an ancient trail once used by pre-Hispanic inhabitants of this region to trade their goods through barter, and later by Jesuit priests in the 17th century during their evangelizing missions.

The journey would take weeks, traveling from the sea to the Andes, crossing forests, rivers, lakes, and lagoons of pristine beauty that remain untouched to this day.

On a one-day journey, we will hike a section of this network of trails, following a river to reach a hidden lagoon: the stunning Cayutué Lagoon, with breathtaking views of Puntiagudo Volcano and the surrounding mountain rainforest.

We will continue our excursion with a hike to Todos los Santos Lake, where a boat will be waiting to take us to the village of Petrohue, from where we will begin the return journey by vehicle to Puerto Varas.

This is a hike with no technical difficulty but physically demanding. Suitable for anyone over 12 years old who enjoys walking.
