Our schedule prevented us from staying a day in the valley or riding deeper into the Andes, and that was too bad. Given a week or more, we could have arranged for a loop trip deep into the Andes, visiting remote farms and riding past mountain lakes, before emerging on the coast of Puelo. But, we did get a taste of a spectacular corner of the Earth that is just beginning to be discovered by Europeans and Americans. If history is any guide, in two generations you will be sharing the scenery with an armada of motorhomes. Campo Aventura Clark Stede can arrange almost any length trip up to nearly two weeks for groups up to six or eight.
Guides speak English, German and Spanish.
The stirrups are wooden and enclosed in the toe in the South American style. Campo Aventura can be reached by rental car or transportation can be arranged from the airport or hotels at Puerto Montt, a two-hour flight south of Chile's capital of Santiago. Prices, which include food, depend on the length of the trip. We welcome suggestions regarding this page.
