Enjoy a unique experience in contact with nature at Estancia Vega Castillo, a place of great natural and scenic wealth just one hour from Puerto Natales. The day begins with your pick-up at your accommodation and the tour along the Bahía del Bote route until you reach the heart of the estancia, where a wetland of more than 450 hectares extends, considered one of the largest and most diverse in the area.
This privileged ecosystem is surrounded by native Nothofagus forests, the imposing Toro Lake and the meandering Tres Pasos River, which creates an ideal habitat for nesting and bird watching. Here you can see black-necked swans, coscorobas, bandurrias, black and red-crested ducks, as well as the majestic owl. The dynamics of the place are enriched by the presence of predators such as pumas and foxes, whose action allows birds of prey to find food in the carrion, generating a fascinating natural cycle.
At midday there is a break to enjoy a well-deserved rest and a box lunch surrounded by nature. The tour then delves into the reedbeds area, where you can observe a distinct ecosystem that is home to less common species in the region, such as the Worker, Trile, and Siete Colores, thus adding even more value to this observation experience.
The tour departure time is flexible and can be adapted to your preference, although it is recommended to start at 6:00 am, an ideal time to take advantage of the calm of the morning and increase the chances of spotting wildlife in full activity.
