Nature in its Natural State

The glassy waters of Laguna Espejo reflect the glacial peaks of the surrounding mountains. The Tres Monjas, three rocky spires towering above, keep a watchful eye on the pristine wilderness that locals refer to as "un paisaje pintado por dios." A true appreciation for the meaning of this phrase can only be achieved by viewing for yourself a region that provides breathtaking scenery anywhere you look, from the flowers in the underbrush, to the 360 degree panoramic vistas that will drop your jaw.

The best way to view pure untouched nature is by the natural roadways of the ancient Araucanian civilization, by rafting the rivers. Here you can explore forests without trails, penetrate deep into wilderness without roads, and enjoy the sounds of nature without the distant noise pollution of mankind, pure nature. You can get all this and still enjoy a soak in the hot tub at the end of the day while sampling the fine wines of chile.

Patagonia Sin Represas

Patagonia, Chile has remained for years as one of the most spectacular untouched wilderness areas of the world. It appears as though this untouched beauty may be on the brink of disaster. Mankinds inability to leave nature in its natural state will prevail in a most horrific way if plans go forward to blaze the world's largest clearcut area across 9 regions of Chile in order to bring power 3000 Kilometers to the Metropolis, Santiago. As long as the light switch continues to go on and off, mankind will never see the urgency to develop less environmentally harmful ways of generating power.
