Detailed itinerary

During a part of our tour we will appreciate the landscape composed of the steppe and the river Limay, which runs parallel to the route.

The Enchanted Valley of the Limay River is a unique place, where you can see strange figures outlined by the rock formations.

The valley of the Traful river is crossed, crossing some of its tributaries (the Cuyin Manzano river and the Minero river) until reaching the Traful lake, on whose southern coast populated with beautiful coihues forests, is the town of Villa Traful. In this destination you can visit the main pier, visit its picturesque center or approach some of the beautiful waterfalls that form in the Coacó stream and the White stream.

It is one of the lakes that make up the mythical Way of the Seven Lakes.

During our tour we will stop to meet the center of this beautiful and picturesque mountain village.
