Special New Years Trip: Dec. 30-Jan.2

Jan 7-10, Feb. 7-10, March 7-10

Your trip begins at your hotel (or the airport in Puerto Montt) with a journey south by land along the coast of the Reloncaví Sound on the first section of the Carretera Austral (Southern Highway), the gravel road extending into Patagonia. 3 1/2 hours of spectacular coastal and mountain scenery before we arrive in the volcano shadowed town of Hornopirén where the fjords begin and make road travel impossible.

Cahuella and her crew will take you through the majesty of the world famous Patagonian fjords- a land of pristine forests, small settlements and massive mountains rising from the deep ocean. Here you will witness the untouched wilderness of the steep glacier-topped Andes, old growth temperate rainforest and numerous hot springs that motivated American Conservationist Douglas Tompkins to preserve over 700,000 acres as one of South America's largest private park projects. The area is designed to protect the 3500 year old Alerce tree as well as serve as a research center into sustainable living in the region of Patagonia. Every afternoon we will drop anchor in protected bays and go ashore, sometimes to walk along the deserted beaches and other times to visit natural hot springs hidden in the native forest. Each evening, your talented local chef will surprise you with delicacies made from the freshest local products from the sea and countryside.
