Itinerary
At the agreed time we will pick you up at the selected hotels to go to the base in Ensenada. Here we will have a full safety talk where we will learn the proper use of the equipment, and prepare for the rowing.
We will get on the transport that will take us to the beginning of the tour in the Petrohué River, which is located in the Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park.
This river flows from the Lake Todos Los Santos and reaches the Reloncaví fjord, which is surrounded by snow-covered volcanoes like the famous volcano Osorno, the Calbuco and the pronounced Puntiagudo hill.
After two hours of travel, we will arrive at our landing point to change and return to the base where we can enjoy a delicious reward Pisco Sour with a snack. After our rest, we will be returning to our selected hotels in Puerto Varas.

About Puerto Varas
Puerto Varas is a lakeside town in southern Chile, set on Lake Llanquihue beneath the Osorno and Calbuco volcanoes with a German-settler stamp.
Puerto Varas sits on the shore of Lake Llanquihue, one of Chile's largest lakes, with the snow-capped cone of Osorno volcano standing across the water and the jagged Calbuco close by. German families settled the region from the 1850s, and the wooden houses with steep shingled roofs and the gardens full of roses along the lakefront still show their influence.
