Nestled between soaring mountains and lush forests, this small town is a top destination for adventure lovers, especially those seeking the thrill of rafting, kayaking, and hiking in the great outdoors.

A glimpse into its past

The area was originally home to indigenous Mapuche people before attracting settlers drawn by its rich natural resources. Over time, it developed into a haven for thrill-seekers from around the world, thanks to the legendary Futaleufú River, considered one of the best whitewater rivers on the planet.

When is the best time to visit?

The most popular months are from November to March, when the weather is milder and outdoor activities are in full swing. This period offers ideal conditions for river sports and hiking.

How do I get there?

Though remote, Futaleufú is accessible via regional flights to Chaitén, followed by a scenic drive or bus trip. There are also overland routes from both Chile and Argentina.
