Chinquihue km 6. Navigation through Llanquihue's Archipelago

Attractions:
The beautiful Quintupeu Fjord is located south of Puerto Montt.
This place is where the German Ship “SMS Dresden”
hid during the Malvinas Battle in the year 1915. The Fjord
has a narrow entry and in its natural walls of 600 mts. high,
long water falls and alerce trees can bee seen. Some of these
trees can have up to 3.600 years of age and they are surrounded
by flowers and other species, such as copihue, tepas, ulmos
and lengas in the highest areas and here nature gives us an
amazing view with volcanoes as the Yates and Hornopiren. The
estuary and cliffs' view is something impressive, unforgettable
and touching.
The
Llancahué hot springs are located in the same named
island, south of the Ciervo's Island. This hot springs have
covered and open air swimming pools and they offer also a
fascinating opportunity: take a bath in the Pacific Ocean,
where its waters lessens the temperature. From this place
we will have an exceptional view of the Llanchid Archipelago
at sunset.
We will also visit the Rio Negro town, a peaceful and quaint
village of this area. Its wooden houses, made of alerce's
shingles, have shade colors that contrast gladly with the
green vegetation of the place. In this village you will be
able to walk down their streets.
The
whole area is known because of the presence of Andean Glaciers
and geological faults that conduced to the glacier erosion.
Get on board and enjoy this weekend Cruise, were gastronomy
and the landscape will be at your service.
