The lodge is located in the town of Coyhaique, where we are excited to mix adventure and relaxation at the Chilean Patagonian modern rustic lodge. One of the standout features of this lodge is its commitment to hosting only 8 anglers per week, ensuring an exclusive and personalized experience for our group.

  • Typically, the cost of the trip is non-refundable unless suitable replacement guests are found by guests.

    We will help you find travel insurance that meets your needs. Our preferred third-party travel insurance is: Global Rescue
