Patagonia Nativa

The Lakes District


One of several worthwhile options that have opened above town, with views over the Reloncaví fjord that would make a postcard throw in the towel. Owner Cristian speaks enough English and has built a cozy cabin-like guesthouse – filtered coffee! – that still smells of pine. He runs kayak trips as well.

Towels are free in private rooms and for multinight stays, but one-night dorm dwellers will need to fork over CH$2000.
