This park is the faithful representation of the evergreen forest that stands out in southern Chile, which amazes us with its abundant vegetation and fauna that can be seen almost throughout the entire route. An excellent alternative to visit and start the Patagonia Parks Route.

What To Expect

We will visit the Chaica River Leap, see different native forest species and the park’s iconic millennial larches, as well as birds that will delight us with their singing. We will arrive at our first stop in Laguna Chaiquenes, rest for a few minutes to continue with our second part of the tour ending at our main destination Laguna Triangulo. We will enjoy a rich snack and recover energy for our return. We will descend along the same route to the starting point to begin our return to Puerto Varas. IMPORTANT: 9 km route (18 km total round trip) Stone route, roots and lots of mud in the last 5 kilometers.

The trip was wonderful....

5.00The trip was wonderful. The guide Lorena was exceptional. Due to unforeseen physical limitations, we were unable to see the entire tour, so that we would not be deprived of the beauty of the park, she took us to another lake so that we could walk around it. She also prepared a snack for us. I highly recommend it!
Hike worth the effort.

4.00Great hike, not very difficult. Lots of mud in the middle section so don't expect to stay clean. Guide Lorena was very pleasant and interactive with us in identifying birds and interesting plants/trees. The view at Laguna Triangle is stunning and worth the effort.

5.00Delightful walk through the enchanted forest. Lorena is the perfect guide: knowledgable, observant and kind. Mapu Activa is a real find.

5.00We thank our Guide Lorena who guided us on the tour to Alerce National Park. It was just wonderful!!! We made a walk of about 13km between going and going with simply magnificent landscapes. The trail was made respecting the limits of each of us and Lorena knows the place very well and was very attentive with us.
Beautiful city.

5.00I've known him since I was 25. For business, vacation, family, casino, alone, etc. Next to Valdivia should be the most beautiful cities in Chile. It's a city I always recommend to my acquaintances.
Raging River, Waterfalls, and Lakes

5.00This was a great way to see the beauty Patagonia affords: Raging rivers, lakes, forests, waterfalls, and wonderful Mountain Views in the course of a day hike. Our guide, Lorena, was great as she kept a manageable and comfortable trekking pace throughout and was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, history, and geology. A very enjoyable trek.
