Exploration Path
Nous randonnerons à travers la vallée de la rivière jusqu'au lac Cochrane, qui possède l'une des eaux les plus cristallines au monde. Nous contemplerons les pentes sud du parc national de la Patagonie, l'un des principaux habitats du huemul. Nous visiterons le poste Huemul, la base de protection et de surveillance des huemuls qui transitent dans ces zones. Nous traverserons une forêt pleine de chants d'oiseaux et d'une faune marquée.
For the troperos - traditional nomadic herders - and ranchers of the region, the year was divided into two key seasons: the "veranada" and the "invernada. During the summer, the troperos drove their cattle to the veranadas, high pastures that, once free of snow, provided abundant grazing in clearings surrounded by deciduous forests of ñirre and lenga. In winter, the herds moved to the winter pastures, lower, sheltered areas where corrals provided protection from inclement weather. Today, thanks to the ecological restoration efforts led by Rewilding Chile, these clearings and ancient forests used for cattle grazing have been transformed into a natural sanctuary waiting to be explored.
