Pickup offered
Offered in: German and 2 more

Takes us from Chacabuco, where we will pick you up with an adequate vehicle, directly to the Chilean Patagonian where you will visit many places like the longest suspension bridge in Chile, the unique Pangal valley, which was once a glacier, with the destination of the waterfall "Cascada del leon", the "Ghost Lagoon", a lagoon called "Los Coipos" and more.

Following the path of the pioneers, we will now go to a tradition that only exists here, the Patagonian ASADO, a special kind of barbecue.
Here you will be served, very typical, lamb from the spit and everything what the fertile earth gives. Potatoes, salad and of course sopaipillas, a delicious Chilean small starter made of dough.
Here you get one of the most beautiful insights into the local culture and the habits of the rural population, the Campesinos.

Finally we go directly back to the port of Chacabuco, where your ship is waiting for you!

A tour made for nature, culture and photography lovers!

The weather in Patagonia is very changeable and it is difficult to calculate, but this also means an incredible variety of colors. The flora and fauna are clearly in the foreground here.

    Chilean Patagonia

    Now we go back to the main road, where we visit the "Ghost Lagoon", so you can get an idea of how the region looked like in the middle of the last century, after it was almost completely destroyed by fire! Following the path of the pioneers, we will now go to a tradition that only exists here, the Patagonian ASADO, a special kind of barbecue. Here you will be served, very typical, lamb from the spit and everything what the fertile earth gives. Potatoes, salad and of course sopaipillas, a delicious Chilean small starter made of dough. Here you get one of the most beautiful insights into the local culture and the habits of rural population, the Campesinos. On the way back we cross the oldest suspension bridge of the region on foot (it is not dangerous at all!!) and take some more pictures of this incredible landscape. Finally, we visit "Los Coipos Lagoon" and say goodbye to the song of the Chucao, one of, if not the most typical bird of Patagonia. Include 20 minutes driving and 20 back.
