A footbridge across a river leads to a trail to Stede's place. He uses four-wheel drive pickup to fetch baggage across the river, water foaming over the hubs. Alternately, he can arrange transportation directly from Puerto Montt. Once at Campo Aventura, however, there is a feeling of oasis. Guests can simply sleep or eat at Stedes attractive and simple wood complex besides the Cocham River for an reasonable room and board fee.
Horseback trips are also available.
There are hot showers, a sauna and laundry facilities. But to get to your personal Yosemite, an overnight trip is necessary. And getting there is an experience. I had been on short trail rides before but made no pretense of really knowing how to ride. Fortunately, the horses were incredibly sure-footed.
