A delightful day- trek around the majestic Osorno Volcano to the emerald-green lake of Todos los Santos.

Departure from Zapato Amarillo Hostal at 8.30 am. The trip goes past single farmhouses to the Vicente Perez Rosales National Park, on the north side of Volcan Osorno, to the upper end of the Rio Blanco valley. The beginning of the trek , a short uphill path, leads us high up through Southern beech forest, to a wonderful fleeting glimpse of the snow-covered Osorno Volcano, around the foot of which we will continue our trek. After about an hour we will reach a small pass, the highest point of the trek, located at an altitude of 3,500 feet. At this point the rocky “Cerro la Picada” can be viewed, to the north-east, whilst to the east the the heavily-glaciered Monte Tronador towers up at almost 10,500 feet. We will cross a wide lava field and will soon be presented with a wide view over lake Todos los Santos, one of the most beautiful lakes in Chile. We will climb up in the direction of the lake to reach the first light woodland, then arrive at a beautiful sandy beach, where, weather permitting, we can take a refreshing dip in cristal-clear waters. Following the contours of the beach , we will continue on to the last part of the trek till we reach Petrohue. The whole trek lasts about 5 hours. Our bus will take us to the adjacent waterfalls of Rio Petrohue, then we continue on to Ensenada on Lake Llanquihue, where we can visit a blue lagoon, which gets its colour from certain micro-organisms. We travel further through woods and lava fields, skirting the banks of the lake and foot of the Osorno volcano, until we finally arrive back in Puerto Octay. Time of arrival in Puerto Octay will be around 7 pm.
