Day Trip Details

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Caviahue and travel northeast towards Copahue. A brief stop at the Mirador de Caviahue will allow us to admire the Copahue Volcano and lake.

After approximately 30 minutes, we'll reach Las Máquinas, where we'll wander amongst fumaroles and boiling springs. This area is named Las Máquinas due to the sounds emitted by the Earth resembling steam engines.

We'll then visit the old Bustillo Inn, home to the remains of South America's first geothermal power plant. We'll explore the old geothermal well and discuss its history.

Next, we'll go to the village of Copahue to visit Agua de Limón (Lemon Water), a natural hot water spring. The trip concludes at Callos Lagoon in Copahue's Thermal Complex, where you'll have 45 minutes of free time to enjoy the warm waters of volcanic origin.

Finally, we'll return to Caviahue, concluding the tour back at your hotel after a total of 4 hours.
