Lanín National Park
Your scenic drive first takes you through Lanín National Park into the Pampa de Trompul, part of a local indigenous Mapuche community’s territory. Pass by the Piedra de Trompul, or ‘Chief’s stone’ in the Mapuche language. According to legend, strong thunder in its vicinity means rain or snow is coming. In the distance, look out for Savannah Mountain and Cerro Colorado, an extinct volcano.

Yuco Beach
Get off the bus, and follow your guide for a pleasant stroll through an Andean-Patagonian forest of pellin, oak and coihue woods. Come out the other side onto Yuco beach, a site surrounded by myrtle trees, facing the pristine waters of Lake Lácar nestled in the Andes mountains.

Chachin Waterfall - Hua-Hum
Thanks to this easygoing 30-minute hike up to Chachin Waterfall, admire from a balcony, the 65-foot (20-meter) cascade roaring down into a clear green pool of water.

    We had a wonderful time in Lanín National Park, especially when we hiked to the breathtaking waterfalls. The only downside was that the experience felt a bit rushed, leaving us wanting to linger in some spots longer.

    The waterfalls I encountered during my trip were nothing short of breathtaking, with their cascading waters creating a serene atmosphere. While the scenery was stunning, I found some of the trails a bit challenging to navigate, which slowed me down a little.

    Exploring the Lanín National Park was a highlight of our trip, especially the breathtaking waterfalls that seemed to cascade forever. We loved the guided hike, which allowed us to delve deep into the park’s beauty while learning about its unique ecosystem. While the tour could have offered a bit more time at each stop, the stunning scenery made every moment worthwhile.
