Laguna La Pepa

Exploration Path

À vélo, nous parcourrons un chemin au dénivelé varié à travers un paysage constitué de lacs, de ranchs et de forêts de hêtres de la Terre de feu, jusqu'à atteindre le Lac La Pepa, que nous longerons avant de revenir par le même chemin.

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.
