Day 2: Puerto Montt – Chaitén – Yelcho Glacier. Terminator Camp

From Puerto Montt, we board a plane for a spectacular flight to the town of Chaitén. Then, beautiful trails immersed in the heart of the rain forest, lead us to the Ventisquero Glacier. In our hike we’ll be able to enjoy the unique flora and fauna of this particular ecosystem. As we get closer to the glacier, we experience the greatness of this ice formation stopped in time. A true spectacle of nature! From there we will head to Futaleufú through an impressive road that goes from the ocean to the mountains and spend the night in Terminator Camp, built alongside the most famous rapid of the Fu: Terminator.

Day 3: Canyoneering – Training Day. Terminator Camp

Today’s adventure begins with canyoneering in Arroyo Blanco (White Creek). The creek runs through a canyon of white granite and turquoise water, which we will traverse on foot until we reach a waterfall. Later, we will have our training day. A very exciting section of the river will allow us to train and prepare for the challenges the rest of the week will bring. After all the action, we head to our camp to relax and enjoy a good meal and the hot tub overlooking Terminator rapid.

Day 4: Kayaking – Inferno Canyon. Cave Camp

The day starts with the enjoyment of taking our own kayaks down the Espolón River, a perfect place for beginners. We will paddle until we reach our lunch spot. Then we will change to rafts and enter one of the most challenging portions of the river, Inferno Canyon, a striking canyon with impressive class 5 rapids. From there, we will continue to our next destination: Cave Camp. At our camp, we will have free time to explore and enjoy its many features, including the little blue lake, the sandy beach, the wooden hot tub, the stone hot tub, and much more!

Day 5: Tyrolean – Trekking – Condor Hill. Tree House Camp

A stunning trekking will lead us to our next camp, Tree Houses. On our way, we cross the Futaleufú with a pulley system suspended over the most dramatic rapid of the river. On the other side, we start our hike to our camp enjoying spectacular views all along the way. Upon arrival, we will find ourselves in a unique place with a series of tree houses interconnected by bridges. Here we will eat lunch and have time to swim in the lake, go kayaking, or relax at the hot tub right next to the lake. We will also have the possibility of hiking up to Condor hill, where condor sights are very common. Condors are typical birds of Chile with a wingspan of over 10 feet.

Day 6: Trekking – Zip Line – Rock Climbing – Rappel. Cave Camp

After hiking back to the banks of the river, we will “zip” across through a pulley system flying through the air and sliding over the river. We can also jump into the river from different altitudes up to 40 feet high and feel the adrenalin of a free fall. In the afternoon, we will go climbing until reaching the top of a rock formation where we will enjoy spectacular 360º views. Then we will rappel off a 300-foot granite wall. Our climb has been carefully designed to be successfully completed by people of all ages, and it has different levels of difficulty you can choose from. Finally, we will relax in the hot tub overlooking the river and have a delicious dinner to recover our strength.

Day 7: Rafting – Kayaking. The Nuns Camp

We start early for a full day of water activities. In the morning we will raft an entertaining section of the river with class 4 and 4+ until we reach our lunch spot. In the afternoon, and after a short hike, we will use inflatable kayaks to go down the Rio Azul through a beautiful canyon until it meets the Futaleufú. From there, we will keep kayaking until our next camp: The Nuns. In camp, we will have time to relax at the cliff hot tub, and enjoy a Patagonian asado (lamb barbecue) overlooking the river and its landmark mountains, the Nuns.

Day 8: Big Rafting Day. Yelcho Lodge

After a good breakfast and stocking up on energy, we will face the biggest whitewater day of our trip.
