  Raft Petrohué River
   
 
 

Have fun on a raft

Raft in comfort with friendly folks. Hit the wildest rapids with confidence. Share our love of the wilderness and enjoy the beauty of the flushing green river. Most of the rapids on this section of Petrohué River are class III, gradually increasing in difficulty as the trip (about 9miles) progresses. Duration about 2 hours. Where Petrohué River makes its peculiar right-hand hook away from Llanquihue Lake diverted by an ancient eruption's lava flow of Osorno we put in our rafts to start our trip through crystalline emerald green water under the majestic scenery of volcano Osorno. Before starting we prepare our equipment and get instructions on how to use the paddle, positions of the paddle, coordination of the group, safety instructions, what to do if you have to swim in a rapid etc. Than we whirl the 9 miles with its 6 rapids downstream. Afterwards 8 more miles without rapids invite us to swim in the river, hike to some remote places or just to have lunch on the riverside. Our funny trip ends to soon at the take-out nearby Ralún.
