From our refuge, the experience begins with a small 1-hour trekking through mountain trails, where we can enjoy a wonderful forest of tabaquillos, this special species of our mountains. Our destination will be to see a majestic specimen of almost 700 years. Back to the refuge we will enjoy an exquisite typical Serrano lunch.

After lunch we will do a mountain trek of approximately 1.5 hours, during which we will enjoy unbeatable views of high mountains, there you can capture photographs and know the native fauna and flora. Already in the waterfall, we will contemplate this natural resource of striking landscape beauty, formed by a leap of the San Cristobal stream, with a drop of 20 meters high, surrounded by maitenes and tabaquillos. Upon our return, a pre-snack awaits us to return to our starting point.
