Calbuco Volcano Hiking excursion at Llanquihue National Reserve Lake District North Patagonia Chile.

We will travel through toward Llanquihue National Reserve (33, 972 hectares), to encounter the great Calbuco Volcano and the temperate rainforest. This National Reserve is part of the Temperate Rainforests of the Austral Andes, declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 2007. At April 2015 was the last eruption. We start our hike by a beautiful forest where we identify the native species, including the Alerce, an evergreen tree that reaches a height of 45 meters and whose diameter can exceed 4 meters wide. We also have opportunity to see, hear, and identify birds such as the black woodpecker, the Huet-Huet, Ibis, Caracaras and other especies. After approximately 4 hours of walking, we arrive at mirador at old refuge of the Calbuco Volcano. The current geological formation has been shaped by a succession of tectonic and glacial processes that highlights the Calbuco Volcano cone which has a height of 2, 015 meters. After the hike, we will return to the pier or hotel. This tour can be customized under request!
