Explorations in
Patagonia National Park

A dynamic e-bike ride along the winding slopes of the eastern Chacabuco Valley. Discover diverse landscapes ranging from expansive pampas and patches of ñirre and lenga forests to water bodies once used as rest stops for livestock transhumance, making this circuit filled with viewpoints a must-see for cycling and outdoor enthusiasts.

We will bike across much of the Chacabuco Valley and the Patagonian steppe, observing how it has been recovering its original nature little by little. We will then continue up to the great walkway donated by Mr. Butler and get to know its interesting construction.

We will cycle along a trail with ascents and descents, from which we will see lagoons, ranches and nothofagus forests, until reaching Laguna La Pepa, which we will flank before returning along the same route.

We will visit a rancher's post to learn about part of the Chacabuco Valley's history. We will view its remains and get to now more about the lifestyle of its residents. We take a sloping path among ancient lenga forests, passing lagoons and diverse views. We will pass through transit areas used by huemuls and other species in the Patagonia National Park.

We ascend through a region with varied ecosystems, where valleys, forests and plateaus contrast. The desert of the heights presents us with a scenery characteristic of the Patagonian mountains. The intense wind and the changing climate gave this exploration its name.
