COYHAIQUE CITY TOUR

From Puerto Chacabuco we go along the Simpson River to visit the beautyful

"River Simpson National Park" with its small but informative Museum which shows you some typical artifacts of the animals and plants of this region. You will have a small walk on the shore of the Simpson River, one of the hotspots of flyfishers from all around the world.

From here we go further eastwards to visit one of the most famous waterfalls

"Cascada de virgin" (virgin waterfall) to take some great pictures of this magical place.

After we have almost seen the "virgin Maria" after which the waterfall was named, we are going on our way to the Capital of the region "COYHAIQUE" (native word for "between the rivers").

We stop at the "Mirador Marchant" wich is located 10 km from the northern entry/exit of Coyhaique. From the Luis Marchant viewpoint, you can see the city of Coyhaique in all its magnitude, part of the Simpson Valley (sectors of Ensenada and El Claro), the Divisadero mountain range and the Pampa Pinuer.

You can take great pictures here!

From here we are going "downtown" to the center of this City, where you will visit handycrafts and other nice places or just walking around enjoying the "citylife" on the almost most southern part of Chile.

Now on our way back to your ship you will have a great experience at a typical chilean ranch where we will give you a unique insight into the life of the local inhabitants and the organic products they serve you. An ASADO (chilean BBQ) a lamb on a spit, potatoes and salad from the ranch, nothing is bought, everything is untreated and pure.
The family farm has not only sheep, cattle, goats, ducks, geese and chickens, no, they also have a wonderful strawberry, raspberry-blueberry plantation, where you can pick your own fruit and eat it directly. This is unique and we have the exclusive right. The family will give a warm welcome and explain to you what it is all about and what the life of a Gaucho is like.

From here we are going to see/walk on the oldest rope bridge of the Region! Wonderful view on the Aysén River will complete your fotosession.

Now it is time to go back to Puerto Chacabuco, where your ship is awaiting you!

Pioneer Tour

takes us from Chacabuco, where we will pick you up with an adequate vehicle, directly to the old capital Puerto Aysén over the longest suspension bridge in Chile!

We stop briefly to take a photo of this structure, which was built according to Gustav Eiffel's plans. Afterwards we continue to the "Bahia Acantilada" with a wonderful view of the glaciers of the

Andes, which present themselves mayestätisch around us. Also here there is a lot to photograph.

From here we return to the only paved road heading east. After about 15 minutes we turn onto an off-road route of about 10 km through the unique Pangal valley, which was once a glacier, with the destination of the waterfall "Cascada del leon".  The weather in Patagonia is very changeable and it is difficult to calculate, but this also means an incredible variety of colors. The flora and fauna are clearly in the foreground here.

Now we go back to the main road, where we will introduce you to the "Ghost Lagoon", so you can get an idea of how the region looked like in the middle of the last century, after it was almost completely destroyed by fire!

Following the path of the pioneers, we will now go to a tradition that only exists here, the Patagonian ASADO, a special kind of barbecue.
Here you will be served, very typical, lamb from the spit and everything what the fertile earth gives. Potatoes, salad and of course sopaipillas, a delicious Chilean small starter made of dough.
Here you get one of the most beautiful insights into the local culture and the habits of the rural population, the Campesinos.

On the way back we cross the oldest suspension bridge of the region on foot (it is not dangerous at all!!) and take some more pictures of this incredible landscape.

Finally, we visit a lagoon called "Los Coipos" and say goodbye to the song of the Chucao, one of, if not the most typical bird of Patagonia.

Now we go directly back to the port of Chacabuco, where your ship is waiting for you!
