Get an adrenaline rush by river bugging down the Espolón River! This watersport consists of navigating rapids in an individual inflatable boat using fin-shaped gloves.

Espolón River Bugging

At 10 am, we'll depart from Futaleufú to the banks of the Espolón River, a prominent river in Chilean Patagonia.

Upon arrival, you'll receive a short safety briefing and be equipped with helmets, vests, and other necessary gear.

River bugging involves navigating the rapids in an individual inflatable boat using fin-shaped gloves instead of paddles.

During the 1.5-hour experience, you'll enjoy the landscapes of the Patagonian province of Palena in the Los Lagos region.

After the activity, a snack of local products will be provided, and we’ll return to Futaleufú, arriving at 1 pm.
