About Parque Funtangue

Futangue Park is a native forest conservation project located in northern Patagonia, at the foot of the Andean mountain range. The park is open to the public and offers tourists numerous diverse activities and open-air excursions, based around more than 100 kilometers of hiking trails.

Feel the energy of the forest

We are committed to the protection of the Valdivian forest ecosystem. We believe that consciousness and respect for forests and admiration for the life they shelter is achieved by those who are able to experience all it's majesty at first hand. Our objective is to make the Park an important contributor to the conservation of Chile’s natural heritage, to environmental education, academic investigation and the local community it is part of.

Description: I crafted this trip with the intention to combine some of the most amazing and unspoiled nature reserves in Patagonia, where travelers will be able to experience nature, far away from the tourists crowds. This is a journey through spectacular hiking trails in the middle of the native forest of Futangue private reserve and the volcanic plateaus of the Andes in Puyehue National Park, which will undoubtedly leave unforgettable memories. This trip will mix different elements of transformational travel, from great physical challenges, contemplation in nature and cultural encounters to forest bathing and meditation. Don't miss the opportunity to offer your clients the trip of a lifetime.
