We will arrive to the Vicente Perez Rosales National Park oldest national park, founded in 1926.

We will continue the road up to the confiteria at about 4600 feet from where we will enjoy our first short walk of the day going around a secondary crater whose red and orange colors stand out from the natural landscape. From here you will get one of the nicest views of the Calbuco Volcano which sits right in front of us at about 25 kms/ 16 miles of distance, time for a coffee at the base camp resto and head to the starting point of solitario trail. Here we will join the natural trail which introduces us into the deep forest with lichens and ferns that slowly change the landscape into drier terrain and cross the lava flow of the last eruption in 1869 to finally arrive to the spectacular Petrohue River rapids that flows to the estuary of Reloncavi As part of the excursion not to be missed the the Emerald Lake.

5.00María is an excellent guide with a lot of experience. We had a wonderful day hiking Volcán Osorno with her. This hike is a great day hike and is a must see for anyone in the Puerto Montt/Varas area. I would love the opportunity to go on more hikes with María in the area.

Solitario Trail near Osorno Volcano

5.00Maria is a terrific guide. We started at the Osorno ski resort and did a short loop trail that had wonderful views of the Chalbuco volcano which erupted in 2015. Because of the eruption, many trails in this area have sandy footing. The Solitario trail, 3.5 miles one way, is no exception. We walked through a lovely rainforest and then entered into more open spaces. Beware the biting flies in January and wear light colored clothing so you don’t attract them. We finished our day at Petrohue Falls and Emerald Lake.
Great guide, day, and views

5.00Maria made the whole visit easy. Super responsive to emails, making it easy to book. Prompt pickup. A great day explaining local history and geography as we did a hike up the main mountain/volcano and the surrounding areas. We were lucky to have a gorgeous clear day (but very windy!) in the morning, before showers in the afternoon. It was only 3 hikers plus her and the driver, so made for easy and quick going. Overall, Maria and Patagonia Trails were great. Highly recommend her services.
