Multi-day trip in the Nationalpark Villarrica. This ride takes us on a fascinating journey into ancient forests and volcano landscapes.

Day 1

Getting to know each other

After a hearty breakfast, we go on a 3-hour ride in the area. This short tour introduces the usual Chilean riding style (similar to western riding) and enables horse and rider to get to know each other before heading into challenging terrain for the next few days. Overnight in a cozy wooden hut.

Day 2 (6 hours)

Rio Blanco

Departure for the Huife valley. An adventurous day is ahead. Steep ascent in the cold Valdivian rainforest. Descent to small natural hot springs in the Huerquehue National Park. We spent the night in a tent right next to the thermal baths.

Caburgua Lake

This day offers a lot of variety. The path leads now and then along the Rio Blanco river. Constantly changing vegetation awaits us up to the campsite on the lonely lakeshore of Lake Caburgua. Cooking takes place over the campfire.

Back to the Ranch

On the last day, our horses can once again show their mountain skills. From time to time we are rewarded with a great view of the huge lake. Farewell dinner on the farm.
