Location: Ralún, region 10. Altitude: 1600m over sea level. Mount Kiñehuen with its steep forested flanks and its snow dripped summit sits in the surroundings of Ralún. Early in the morning we start our way up by the bed of a rivulet opening us the way through thick forests. Coigües, notros, canelos (a sacred tree to Chile’s Indian people), avellanos (the Chilean hazelnut), and giant farns are to be seen on our tour which offers us an unforgettable outlook over emerald green Petrohué River and the flushing green valley of Ralún. At about 1000 m above seal level we enter into alerce woods where millenarian alerce trees impress with their long history.
