PUCÓN
- SAN MARTÍN DE LOS ANDES (Argentina)
In Out Patagonia, 1 day, tourism buses,
ferry and boat, US$ 249 |
|
Since
December 2008 there is a new enterprise which offers this
trip called "Travesía Navegando Chile Argentina",
joining the two important touristic centers of Pucón
(Chile) and San Martín de los Andes (Argentina) through
the Hua-Hum Pass. The first part of the trip is done with
tourism buses, and then by boat through the attractive lakes
Pirihueico, Nonthué and Lacar.
The
passengers who would like to come back to Pucón can
choose a program that includes an overnight accommodation
in San Martín and taking the next day the route back
to Pucón through the Tromen / Mamuil Malal Pass, at
the foot of the Lanín Volcano.
Due to logistics reasons, the trip through the lakes can only
be made in the direction described above, from Pucón
to San Martín, but not the opposite way. |
 |
| Itinerary |
The
departure is at 08:00 AM from Pucón by bus or minibus
riding along the lakes Villarrica, Calafquén and Panguipulli.
After visiting the waterfall Huilo Huilo we arrive in Puerto
Fuy. There is enough time for an optional lunch (not included
in the price) before taking the ferry that sails during one
and a half hour through the narrow Pirihueico lake. Afterwards,
there is a short part by bus to the Hua-Hum Pass, arriving
first to the Chilean Customs and then, the Argentinean. Once
the paperwork is done at the border, we continue towards the
pier Chachín to get on board of the boat Patagonia
I, which will navigate for 2 hours the lakes Nonthué
and Lacar. The journey ends at the harbour of San Martín
de los Andes at around 19:00 PM.
