Our home

  • COVE

    Our base is located in Ensenada, 35 minutes from Puerto Varas. This rural town is the gateway to Chilean Patagonia. Small, beautiful, and privileged, it is surrounded by volcanoes, native forests, and is home to Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park and part of the Lake Llanquihue Circuit.
    Ensenada has all the comforts and tourist services for an unforgettable experience.

  • PETROHUÉ RIVER

    Immersed in Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park, the Petrohué River is internationally known for its crystal-clear and turbulent waters. It originates in Todos Los Santos Lake and flows freely before emptying into the Reloncaví Estuary towards the Pacific Ocean. Adventure tourism activities such as rafting and packrafting, kayaking, and fly fishing are popular here.
