Further on, we will take the path to the right, passing Kechulafquen lagoon, which will be on our right. Between the lagoons lies the Kechulafquen Campsite, where we can also see the various artisanal products and sweets manufactured by the Puel community. Thematic guided tour services are also available along the community trails. We will then find a village belonging to the Mapuche Puel community located between two small lagoons. A little further on, we will see Matethue Lagoon on our right; it is the largest lagoon in the area. The path will turn to our right towards the shore of lake Moquehue, where a beautiful beach will invite us to take a break. We will wade through the \u201cBlanco\u201d stream near the coast to continue southwest to Moquehue. The trail will pass through forests of pehuenes mixed with cypresses, lengas, and \u00f1ires, showing their ecotonal transition. It will gradually become a faint path with low vegetation of \u00f1ires and coirones, always skirting the slope. At one point, we will pass through loose, crumbling volcanic pozzolan soil (walk carefully with a foothold). We will pass by an old warehouse and later arrive at the organized Trenel campsite with full services.

We will ascend until we reach a small clearing at 1,250 meters. From there, two paths lead off, we will take the straight one that leads uphill and walk along it for about 600 meters (15 minutes) until we reach a crossroads where there are vehicle tracks. Turn right (south) along the vehicle track. The path winds along the slope. At 1,300 meters (distance), we will come across a similar path that goes down to the right, but we will stay on it, turning left. We will continue along the forest road until we reach a channel of loose, light-colored stones where the vehicle track ends. From there, the road turns into a trail that climbs through an open forest of pehuenes with no low vegetation or undergrowth. Upon reaching the area of the stunted lenga trees, we will go around it on the right and ascend in a straightforward manner to the pass or ridge of \u201cCerro Plomo\u201d at 1850 meters above sea level.<\/p>\n<p>From the small pass, we will descend to the right, where we will see some small, clear, rocky outcrops. We will head right through some small clearings to find the trailhead between the scrubby lenga trees. We will descend through the lenga trees and the streambed until we find an old logging road that runs down the left bank of the \u201cBlanco\u201d stream. 3 kilometers from the pass, we will find the old logging station where we can bivouac and continue the next day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. \u201cPuesto Viejo\u201d \u2013 \u201c\u00d1orquinco\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Distance: 11.3km<\/li>\n<li>Duration: 4 hours.<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty: Low.<\/li>\n<li>Seasonality: December \u2013 March.<\/li>\n<li>Points of interest: Pehuenes Forests, old logging roads, Lake \u00d1orquinco.

We will go down to the crossroad and continue the descent taking the path on the left, always heading south. From this point it will be about 4 km until we reach the route. We will pass some squares with two gates and continue the descent along a dirt road for vehicles. Finally, we will reach the pampas that will take us directly to the supply store, after crossing the \u201cBlanco\u201d stream ford, about 100 meters from Route 11 that connects \u201c\u00d1orquinco\u201d with \u201cMoquehue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. \u201c\u00d1orquinco\u201d \u2013 \u201cPampa de Castro\u201d Bivouac<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Distance: 15km<\/li>\n<li>Duration: 6 hours.<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty: Medium.<\/li>\n<li>Seasonality: November \u2013 May<\/li>\n<li>Points of interest: Cultural: \u201c\u00d1orquinco\u201d and \u201cAigo\u201d Mapuche communities.

There we will begin the hike, passing in front of the Park Ranger section, spending the first two hours on the shores of Lake \u201c\u00d1orquinco.\u201d In this coastal area, we will have the opportunity to see two waterfalls adjacent to the trail, a result of a stone buttress that frames the path. Then, leaving the lake, the trail begins to ascend south, passing through some grassy meadows until reaching a path that takes us to the \u201cColoco\u201d waterfall, located below on the right. We will then pass through a \u00d1irantal forest recovering from the fire of 1985. We are always accompanied by a mixed forest of araucaria trees, coihue trees, and pell\u00edn oaks. After about five hours of hiking, we will reach the highest point of the pass. We will cross a highland wetland called the Chufquen wetlands, and then arrive at \u201cPampa de Castro,\u201d where the overnight stay is located (6 hours\/15 km).

The first two kilometers of the trail descend into the wide valley of the Calfiquitra Stream, characterized by a forest of pehuenes or araucarias. During the hike, you can see numerous summer outposts belonging to the Aigo Mapuche community, as cattle transhumance is practiced in this area. At the western headwaters of lake Rucachoroi, you will find a rural campsite with supplies. At the end of the stage, you will find the organized campsite of the Aigo community, with supplies, restrooms, dormitories, bicycle rentals, etc. A little further on, you will find the information center and the park ranger station where you can report your arrival. Water is not a problem at this stage, as the route is almost entirely along the southern bank of the Calfiquitra Stream.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6.

We will head out towards the campsite. 100 meters from the information center, we will find the \u201cRucaco\u201d stream, there we will turn left and ascend. The trail runs for the first 2 hours (4 km) through an exclusive araucaria forest gaining altitude, then at 1550 meters above sea level, a traverse of another 2 hours (4 km) begins through an area of short lenga trees. The panoramic views are very beautiful, allowing us to appreciate the \u201cClugnu Chompir\u00fa\u201d volcano and Lake \u201cRucachoroi,\u201d then entering the high mountain environment of scree and low vegetation at an average altitude of 1800 meters above sea level where the \u201cCerro Rucachoroi\u201d is surrounded by its eastern slope with a duration of 2 hours (4 km).

The trail runs through areas of short lenga, tall lenga and araucaria forests, and then reaches 1,300 meters above sea level with a \u00f1ire forest. This trek takes 3 hours (6 km) and is of high difficulty due to the steep slope, which is very tiring, especially on the descents. The use of walking sticks is recommended. Upon reaching the \u201cMalalco Grande\u201d stream (in the valley), you must ford the stream at the \u201cLefiman\u201d community. This community has some supplies and lodging options. From there, it is only 1 hour (3 km) by road to the end of the stage, located in \u201cCasa de Piedra\u201d (former park ranger station). You can stock up on water at least every 2 hours.

We will cross a vast plain of cypress trees crisscrossed by small streams. Always with the silhouette of \u201cLan\u00edn\u201d Volcano in front of us, we will walk for approximately an hour until we cross a stream over a rustic bridge. Here begins a forest of tall trees, called coihues of the genus Nothofagus.<\/p>\n<p>The trail heads to the right toward the \u201cRucu Leuf\u00fa\u201d stream bed. This is an area of stony ground where the first Pehuen specimens appear. At one point, we will cross a small branch of the stream to the right, continue along the path, and cross it again to the left to begin the climb through the caracoles that run through a tall forest of coihue and lenga trees. The trail climbs considerably until reaching the short lenga trees. Crossing through them, we will come to the high-altitude mallines, where we can see a waterfall at the end. Crossing the stream is the end of the stage. The view from here is magnificent; a glacial peak on the south face shows us the ascent route called \u201cColada Mazoldi,\u201d in honor of the first climber to complete it.

There, we will ring the bell on the shore to alert a resident to pick us up in the boat, allowing us to cross the narrow lake. The trail progresses through the forest on a gentle incline. We will cross very muddy areas where we will find footbridges and several small bridges over streams. The trail flattens out and allows us to enjoy the walk among the araucaria and coihue trees. Near the end, it crosses a couple of extensive plains with good views of Lake \u201cPaim\u00fan.\u201d We will cross the \u201cRimeco\u201d Stream over a log bridge and soon arrive at the \u201cAila\u201d Village, where there is a campsite.

Upon reaching the southern head of the lake, we will find a plains area where we can see an old steam engine called a \u201clocom\u00f3vil&#8221; used for forestry purposes. Here we must pay attention to the markings to direct the trail to \u201cPaso Carirri\u00f1e.\u201d We will have to cross several waterways and marshy areas. The vegetation is densely wooded and with reed beds, near the route, we will pass through an upper area of a deep ravine, descend to the \u201cBurriquete\u201d stream and cross it (we recommend crossing through the water). Then, a flat section and a small climb that leads to Route 62, the gravel road \u201cPaso Carirri\u00f1e.\u201d Here, we will turn left to descend the trail toward the Oconi River bridge.

At 200 meters, we will find the access gate to the National Park Reserve and the Argentine Army. We will pass through and leave the gate closed. About 300 meters ahead, we will take a detour to the right, then another detour to the right, along a narrow path. Following the marks, we will find a vehicle track and arrive at the beautiful \u201cLaguna Rosales,\u201d where we can see a quantity of migratory birds. The road surrounds it, leaving it to the right, and we will arrive at a viewpoint where we can see the sacred stone of \u201cTrompul.\u201d Then, we will turn through the viewpoint and continue along the path that will take us to a gate on a dirt road. We will cross it and turn right to go down to the \u201cCull Rain\u201d stream. We will cross it and continue through a wide plain until we reach a gate on route number 48 that goes from San Mart\u00edn de los Andes to \u201cHua Hum.\u201d We will cross it, following the marks crossing the mountain bike circuit.

At the \u201cQuila Quina\u201d dock, you can hire a horseback ride or a guide from the \u201cCurruhuinca\u201d Mapuche community to accompany you on this interesting journey. \u201cQuila Quina\u201d is a territory that promotes interculturality, filled with stories and legends of the Mapuche people who have inhabited these lands since immemorial times. The trail begins on the street that leads to the dock and begins to climb along well-marked paths, gaining altitude. It passes beside a beautiful waterfall formed by the large stream and then goes around the houses where the community members live. The trail slowly climbs through cliffs and dirt roads, always with the stream on your right. At one point, we will descend to cross a small stream over a fallen tree trunk and then cross an open plain. We will return to the vehicle track to pass several gates, which we must leave closed to prevent the villagers&#8217; cows from escaping.<\/p>\n<p>After the third gate, we will arrive at the Casanova settlement, made up of native Creoles who arrived in these areas at the beginning of the last century.

This section is the watershed between \u201cArroyo Cataratas\u201d and \u201cArroyo Ujenco.\u201d We will walk there for approximately 30 minutes. This is the highest section of the trek (1,500 meters above sea level), therefore, there may be snow even during the summer months. Pay attention to the signs. The watershed flattens out, and then we will begin to descend toward the \u201cArroyo Ujenco\u201d valley and once again enter the lenga forest area. Once there, we will continue descending gently through the valley for approximately 2 hours until we reach a crossing of \u201cArroyo Ujenco,\u201d where there is a rustic log bridge. From here, the trail always follows the right bank, continuing for approximately 1 hour, through a coihue forest until the trail widens and becomes an unused vehicle road that will lead us to the base of the \u201cCerro Bayo\u201d ski resort.<\/p>\n<p>The circuit resumes at the \u201cQuetrihu\u00e9\u201d Isthmus, the entrance to \u201cLos Arrayanes\u201d National Park, in Villa La Angostura, 12 km from this point (6 km to Route 40, then 3 km to the locality center, and then 3 km more to the port area).<\/p>\n<p><strong>23.

As soon as the trail begins, we will begin to climb. After about 20 minutes, we will reach a viewpoint area with panoramic views of Lake Nahuel Huapi and the Angostura branch. From here, the slope eases, and we will travel along an old cart road that narrows again as we climb a hill at approximately km 8. After passing this hill, the trail descends until we can see \u201cPatagua\u201d Lagoon on the right, an ideal place to rest for a while before continuing. The trail continues, turning 90\u00ba to the left and descending to Lake Nahuel Huapi, where we will find the park ranger&#8217;s house.

The first part follows the Lower Manso River along a trail, then opens onto a vehicle road. Forty minutes from the station, we will pass the \u201cEl Viejo Manzano\u201d wild camping area, with a river bank. The trail begins to separate from the river. We will cross four slow-flowing streams, which can be dry in late summer. Near the confluence of the Manso and Villegas rivers, the trail once again approaches the river. The last part follows a rarely used vehicle track, which joins National Route No. 40 (paved) near the bridge that crosses the Villegas river (the southern boundary of Nahuel Huapi National Park). This stage ends here.<\/p>\n<p>If we want to continue on to the next stage, we must turn right, walking along the shoulder of the road for about 300 meters and then after crossing the bridge and walking another 200 meters, arriving at the Villegas Gendarmerie outpost, in front of which the road to Le\u00f3n Pass (gravel) begins. We must take this road and travel along it for about 6 km, passing through the commune of Villegas, until we reach the \u201cKaleuche\u201d organized campsite (trailhead), located on the coast of the Manso River, in the commune \u201cEl Manso.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>28. \u201cKaleuche\u201d Campsite \u2013 \u201cChacra Santa Luc\u00eda\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Distance: 14km.<\/li>\n<li>Duration: 5 hours.<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty: Low.<\/li>\n<li>Seasonality: All year round (check in advance for the status of the \u201cCoronel\u201d stream and snow accumulation in winter)<\/li>\n<li>Points of interest: Contact with residents, views of the hills, and cave paintings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Description from North to South: It begins at the \u201cKaleuche\u201d organized campsite, on the banks of the \u201cManso\u201d river.

Approximately 1 km after the entrance to the \u201cHue Nain\u201d organized campsite, we will leave the local road to join a path through the forest that leads to a secondary road, access to the \u201cHielo Azul\u201d shelter. Upon rejoining the vehicle road, we will turn left for a few meters and see a trail marked with \u201cHuella Andina\u201d on the right. The path leads through the forest, gradually ascending to the access road to \u201cCabeza del Indio.\u201d We will turn right into the Azul River Viewpoint, with good views over the valley. From there, we will descend to a crossroads and take the other side, a secondary road that leads to a gravel route. At this point, the path drops steeply to the right, leading to the wild campsite located on the banks of the Azul River, the end of the stage.

We will walk with the Azul River on our right, close to its banks. After about 3 km, we will reach the \u201cQuemquemtreu\u201d River, which flows into the Azul River. The river can be easily waded during summer. If the water is high, take a local street to access a bridge over the \u201cQuemquemtreu\u201d River and cross it. We will exit onto the paved road that connects El Bols\u00f3n with Lake Puelo, turning right. We will follow it for about 250 meters. We will descend again to the right to the banks of the Azul River, following the old gravel road that is now a local street. Upon reaching the riverbank, we will continue along the river barrier to the \u201cOnda Azul\u201d Hostel. From here, turning left, we will take a local street to Lake Puelo Tourism Office, in the town center. The next stage begins inside Lake Puelo National Park. One option is to walk along the shoulder of the paved road for the 4 km that separate the town from the park; the other is to take public transportation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Section 10 \u2013 Stage 33 \u2013 Lake Puelo National Park \u2013 \u201cEl Desemboque\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Distance: 12.7 km<\/li>\n<li>Duration: 7 hours<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty: High<\/li>\n<li>Seasonality: Summer.<\/li>\n<li>Points of interest: panoramic views of Lake Puelo, \u201cCerro Tres Picos\u201d and Turbio.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Description from North to South: From the Park information office, we will see the access sign for the \u201cMirador del Lago\u201d trail, which we will take.

The trail passes through the junction that leads to the summit of \u201cCerro Currumahuida\u201d; we will continue to the right. We are surrounded by a forest of cypress and coihue trees that gives way to a burned area; alternating ups and downs, we will enjoy panoramic views. We will pass through forests in the process of being renewed, climbing to the \u201cLa Roca\u201d viewpoint. We will continue to \u201cLas Lagunitas\u201d and a little further on, we will reach the Morro mountain. We will pass it on the right, and a steep descent begins. The trail turns abruptly to the left, and soon we will begin to descend toward the Epuy\u00e9n River, bordering steep cliffs. We will reach the riverbank and walk 750 meters upstream to the bridge, we will cross it and then go down the other bank to the campsite located on the shore of the lake.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1799\" height=\"1111\" class=\"wp-image-2361\" src=\"https:\/\/patagonia.gob.ar\/wp2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Lago-Puelo-28-baja.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Section 11 \u2013 Stage 34 \u2013 \u201cEl Desemboque\u201d \u2013 \u201cPuerto Patriada\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Distance: 12.3 km<\/li>\n<li>Duration: 6 hours<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty: Medium<\/li>\n<li>Seasonality: January \u2013 March<\/li>\n<li>Points of interest: panoramic views of \u201cPuelo,\u201d \u201cDesemboque,\u201d \u201cTurbio,\u201d \u201cTres Picos,\u201d Valdivian Rainforest, and Lake Epuy\u00e9n.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Description from North to South: The trail begins at the \u201cEl Desemboque\u201d wild campsite, runs along the coast to the left, and joins the path that leads to the \u201cTurbio\u201d River. Shortly after beginning to ascend, we will come across rocky ground that leads us to the \u201cdangerous stone,\u201d a small viewpoint of Lake Puelo. At that point, the trail turns left and uphill in an easterly direction, leaving behind the path to the \u201cTurbio\u201d River, which runs parallel to the lake. From there, the trail climbs very steeply for an hour until reaching 560 meters above sea level, where we will find a stream. At that point, be careful because we must leave the main path that ascends and turn left along a path that skirts to the north. Further on, we will find granite rocks mixed with low vegetation and cypress trees. We will reach the \u201cDerrumbe\u201d hill pass, where the trail between the \u201cAlerces\u201d and \u201cDerrumbe\u201d lagoons is located. At this junction, head north (left) until you reach the \u201cAlerce\u201d lagoon, a place with a log shelter and fire pits. From this point, the descent begins to the northern shore of Lake Epuy\u00e9n along an easy trail but with signs of erosion caused by water and traffic. All the services and a camping area are located in \u201cPuerto Patriada,\u201d on the northern shore of Lake Epuy\u00e9n.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Section 11 \u2013 Stage 35 \u2013 \u201cVilla Lago Rivadavia\u201d \u2013 North Gate<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Distance: 11 km<\/li>\n<li>Duration: 6.5 hours<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty: Medium<\/li>\n<li>Seasonality: January \u2013 March<\/li>\n<li>Points of interest: Natural viewpoints, panoramic views of the Carrileuf\u00fa Valley and Lake Rivadavia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Description from North to South: Starting from School No. 103 of \u201cVilla Lago Rivadavia,\u201d located on Route 71, we will walk about 200 meters until we find the sign indicating the start of the stage. The trail climbs along a country road and, after crossing a small stream, takes a path to the right, always ascending, through an open forest of Andean cypress trees. The markings in this area were made by students from the rural school; they are placed on the trees and are colored yellow. Along the trail, we will find log steps, railings, and seats made by the school children, clearly exemplifying the collective spirit of \u201cHuella Andina,\u201d in this case strengthened by the participation of the Cholila Andean Club. The \u201cHuella Andina\u201d markings alternate with the same ones until we reach the first two viewpoints, which allow us to enjoy excellent panoramic views of the \u201cCarrileuf\u00fa\u201d River valley and the magnificent mountain range in front. The trail continues along the slope, leaving the school markings behind and continuing along the light blue and white paths. It passes another viewpoint, which in this case directs us toward lake Rivadavia Sur, opposite the crowned hill and behind it, \u201cCerro La Momia.\u201d We will cross a wire fence where a sign welcomes us to \u201cLos Alerces\u201d National Park. The transitional forest gradually transforms into a taller coihue forest. The path crosses some corrals in a village to begin the descent, initially along open or wide paths that later transform into smaller, steeply descending trails until we reach the road in front of the north gate of the National Park, where we will announce our arrival.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Section 11 \u2013 Stage 36 \u2013 North Gate \u2013 \u201cBah\u00eda Sol\u00eds\u201d Campsite<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Distance: 11 km<\/li>\n<li>Duration: 7 hours<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty: Medium<\/li>\n<li>Seasonality: January \u2013 March<\/li>\n<li>Points of interest: Panoramic views.
