Arriving at Puerto Pañuelo, located between the Llao Llao Peninsula and Villa Tacul, we will board and begin the navigation on Lake Nahuel Huapi, a highlight of the region.

We will sail towards Cántaros Waterfall, from where we will be able to observe the majestic larch tree, believed to be 1,500 years old.
Then, we will walk for a while and enter the vegetation of the Valdivian rainforest to reach Lake Cántaros, the source of the waterfall.
Next, we will return to the boat and sail for only five more minutes to finally arrive at Puerto Blest, an incredible place visited by many tourists from all over.

hermoso paseo en barco
Un paseo realmente hermoso. Perderse en la inmensidad de la naturaleza.. Esta actividad nos hace darnos cuenta lo pequeños que somos y lo poco que disfrutamos (los que vivimos en la ciudad) de hermoso de la vida al aire libre.
belle promenade en bateau
Une très belle balade. Se perdre dans l'immensité de la nature: cette activité nous fait prendre conscience à quel point nous sommes petits et combien nous aimons (ceux d'entre nous qui vivons en ville) vivre une belle vie en plein air.
schöne Bootsfahrt
Eine wirklich schöne Fahrt. Sich in der unendlichen Natur verlieren: Diese Aktivität lässt uns erkennen, wie klein wir sind und wie wenig wir (die von uns, die in der Stadt leben) an schönem Leben im Freien genießen.
