Alerces Centenarios Route

We depart from the Tawa by boat to Tagua Tagua Park, a unique conservation site that hides some of the most beautiful hiking trails in Northern Patagonia. With more than 3,000 hectares, this park is a real gem for those who enjoy nature and wild places. The evergreen forest, water and mountains interact here in an endless cycle of life, giving home to centuries-old Alerce trees, Coihues and Lichens among others. It is home to species such as Pudú, Pumas, Monito del Monte, Quetru Duck. The boat will leave us at the entrance of the park, where we will start walking upstream through mountain landscapes and native forest. After 4 hours of walking, we will arrive at the famous Laguna Alerces, a place that treasures a forest of sunken larch trees. This is a unique place to enjoy a good lunch outdoors, rest, and take the opportunity to swim in the cold waters of this mountain lagoon, and then return along the same path towards the pier and return sailing to the warmth of the Tawa. Whether in our Tawa Exploration mode, or as a self-guided exploration, the Tagua Tagua Park and its trekking to the Alerces Lagoon is a must in the Puelo Profundo.
