8 DAY ITINERARY Day 1: Upon our arrival in Puerto Varas, we are greeted with a warm welcome. Afterward, we proceed to Chepu for check-in and a well-deserved rest in our cozy cabins, each accommodating 4 to 6 persons. As the day unfolds, we will gather in the evening for a special welcome dinner ceremony at the charming Chimango CaraCara, setting the stage for the memorable experiences that await us. Day 2: We start the day with a stimulating meditation session set against the serene backdrop of the river, wetlands, mountains, and coastal range. After a homemade breakfast, we embark on an 11 km run along the pristine Pacific coastline, navigating dunes and wetlands, and encountering local wildlife. The run culminates in a thrilling descent through native forest trails. Before transferring to Chiloé Island, we’ll indulge in a delightful brunch with our local hosts. The day concludes with a sunset yoga session on a wooden deck, offering spectacular panoramic lake views, and setting the tone for our stay at Palafito Lodge. Day 3: Our day begins with an invigorating cold plunge, setting the tone for the breathtaking views awaiting us at Cole Cole, our favorite hidden gem in Chiloé National Park. Crossing a small lagoon, we enter this coastal paradise to enjoy a 12 km beach run along clear sands and deep blue seas, surrounded by lush jungle. After exploring Cole Cole, we return to Chiloé for a serene sunset yoga session on the Palafito terrace, where the soothing sounds of crashing waves help us reflect and unwind. Day 4: Today is dedicated to embracing the authentic rhythms of local life. In the morning, we embark on a tranquil kayak ride across the lake, immersing ourselves in the natural beauty that surrounds us. As the afternoon unfolds, we gather with the locals to partake in the time-honored tradition of preparing curanto, a quintessential Chilote dish cooked over hot stones in an earthy pit. In the afternoon, we will have the option to go on a chill stroll to a scenic lookout point, offering a perfect vantage for witnessing the sunset. To wrap up the day, we’ll relax and unwind in a wood-fired hot tub with a stunning view of the lake. Day 5: Our day begins with an early rise as we embark on a scenic ferry ride bound for Chaitén village. From there, a picturesque 60-kilometer drive leads us to Caleta Gonzalo, a quaint seaside town nestled in the eastern expanse of Pumalín National Park. Here, amidst lush forests and cascading waterfalls, we will go on a 3.6 km trek, immersing ourselves in the pristine natural beauty that defines this remarkable park. Day 6: Our day will kick off with a refreshing morning of outdoor yoga, setting a relaxed tone for a local 3.6 km trek to discover the beauty of a breathtaking waterfall in the heart of Caleta Gonzalo. Venturing south, an extraordinary ferry ride through the fjords will guide us to the charming town of Hornopirén. Navigating through Hornopirén village, our journey will continue into the enchanting surroundings of the Puelo River, a Chilean watercourse with origins in Argentina, renowned for its picturesque beaches and natural wells. Day 7: As we bid farewell to Río Puelo, our journey will take us to Puerto Varas for our final run, a remarkable 16 km route around the iconic Osorno Volcano. We’ll start from the eastward hill of La Picada, gently ascending through the forested terrain until we reach the edge of the vegetation near the famous Paso de la Desolación. Our evening unfolds in the welcoming embrace of Petrohué Lodge, a peaceful luxury hotel characterized by its traditional German architecture, spectacular views across the lake, and two swimming pools, perfect for unwinding at the end of the day. Day 8: As we wake on our last day, the morning will grant us free time to wander and discover the captivating town of Puerto Varas. A great opportunity to savor the local atmosphere and bid our farewells to this enchanting place. At noon, we will embark on a direct shuttle from Puerto Varas to the Puerto Montt airport, where we anticipate arriving by 14:00 hrs.
