We will look for passengers in their accommodation to go to “El Tambo”, where we will start our ascent starting from 870 m.a.s.l. Our route of approximately 8 kilometers will be crowned by an imposing view of the mountain range and the lake system. The trail crosses a forest of coihues, multicolored flowers, reeds and
cypresses During the journey, we will stop at various viewpoints. We can observe different birds as we ascend, such as woodpeckers, condors and black-headed jotes, among others.
