Boating in Patagonia
|
|---|
Patagonia’s extensive waterways mean that many of it’s most impressive natural treasures can only be reached by boat. Lakes, rivers, rapids and fiords await those who seek a unique experience.
We invite you to discover the beautiful settings sailing across the pure Patagonian waters and be one of the lucky few who get to explore this region’s uncharted waters.
Boating Options offered at the Lodge
Lake Rispopatrón, Cascades, Hiking at Arrayanes and Lunch
The adventure begins aboard a motorboat, sailing the clear waters of Lake Risopatrón. Surrounded by the Queulat National Park, the lake’s shore is almost untouched by man, preserving the pristine quality of this unique place on Earth and allowing visitors to appreciate nature as it was intended.
There will be a visit to a cascade, which falls into the lake, followed by lunch prepared on Arrayanes Beach. There is an optional hike on the southern shore of the lake after lunch, lasting approximately an hour and a half.

During this outing you will be able to appreciate the riverbank and its stunning views, guided by the pace of the river itself.
