Huilo Huilo Nothofagus Hotel near Panguipulli

Blog post for Saturday, 4 November, 2023

There are a lot of hikes in the vicinity of Huilo Huilo Nothofagus Hotel where we are today. This morning we hiked to the museum and to the animal park across from the hotel. They have wild boar and red deer that we were able to get a good view of. The museum covers the history of the indigenous people in Chile and some of the mining and minerals in Chile. The museum is quite run down but it was still interesting.

I’m not sure what this mineral is. Perhaps anthracite?

This afternoon we did two hikes to three different C waterfalls and a lava tube cave

You can walk behind Llallalca Falls but we all agreed there was too much water.

For dinner we ate in the hotel again. We had venison and lamb and for desert lava cake.
