Queulat National Park Trekking Route

The activity commences at the meeting point at number 350 of Calle 5 de Abril, in La Junta. From there, we will take route 7 of the Carretera Austral toward a scenic area of the Aysén region.

We will first stop in Puyuhuapi, a village with historical significance from the German immigration of the 1940s. After exploring its history, we will proceed to the Queulat National Park and start our trekking route.

The hike lasts between 3 and 4 hours, divided into 2 sections. The first section leads us to the Ventisquero lagoon, where we will view the Hanging Glacier of Queulat. The second section takes us to the large ice tongue and a waterfall over 500 metres (1,640 feet) tall.

At the conclusion of the hike, we will visit a restaurant in the park for a lunch featuring a typical local dish. After lunch, we will return to the trailhead and drive back to the meeting point in La Junta, wrapping up this 9.5-hour activity.
