Activity itinerary

We invite you to get to know Valdivia, from a touring kayak, travelling to Punucapa, a rural town on the banks of the Cruces River, a place full of culture and history, with typical products such as cider and dumplings. In this unique experience we will cross the Valdivia, Calle Calle, Cau Cau and Cruces rivers under the bridges of the same name, heading to the Carlos Anwandter Punucapa Nature Sanctuary; where you will enjoy bird watching like different types of herons, among them the Cuca heron and also black-necked swans among others. Magic, peace and contemplation will accompany us throughout the trip, making the necessary stops for the sighting and photographic record of flora and fauna, exuberant in natural energy and of course sharing a rich maté on the way. Upon landing in the town of Punucapa we will go to enjoy a delicious typical food of the area, cider, beer and empanadas, interacting with people from the town. To then take a tour of the main points of interest, Church, Cipres de las Guatiecas (400 years) etc. Also during the kayaking you will learn and reinforce basic techniques of the discipline of kayaking.
