Discover Reloncavi, Kayaking In Chile`s First Fjord

Discover the First Fjord in Chilean Patagonia with this Full-Day Kayak Adventure departing from Puerto Varas.

We start early, with our comfortable van picking you up at approximately 8:30 a.m. directly from your hotel. From there, we embark on a picturesque journey of approximately 35 minutes along the impressive Lake Llanquihue to our base of operations in Ensenada. During the trip, you`ll have multiple opportunities to capture stunning photographs of the landscapes surrounding this iconic lake.

At our base in Ensenada, you`ll be greeted by our expert guides, all certified in swiftwater rescue and first aid. Here, we`ll equip you with everything you need for your aquatic adventure: neoprene suits and boots to maintain thermal comfort, windproof jackets, and certified life jackets that are regularly renewed. In addition, we have a complete first-aid kit and telephone communication to ensure your safety at all times.

From the mouth of the Petrohué River in Ralún Bay, we begin our exciting journey through the calm, protected waters of the Reloncaví Fjord. After receiving a detailed briefing from our guides on navigation and local conditions, it`s time to paddle and explore. The first leg of the trip, approximately 1.30 hours long, takes us to the Rollizo Peninsula, an idyllic spot where Yolanda`s local family has lived for generations, dedicated to farming. Here, we will enjoy a homecooked lunch in their cozy home, surrounded by meadows that tumble down to the sea, offering a perfect moment to relax and stretch our legs.

After lunch, we will continue our journey paddling south, with the imposing Yates Volcano dominating the horizon. During this stretch, it is common to spot the rich local fauna, including sea lions, dolphins, and a variety of seabirds that accompany us on our way to Cochamó, world-renowned for its challenging climbing walls.

At the end of our kayak trip, we explore the charming fishing village of Cochamó, enjoying its panoramic views over the fjord and the valley to the east. After a short walk along the waterfront, we return to Puerto Varas, arriving approximately between 6 and 7 PM.

This experience is designed for everyone, from beginners to experts, with high-quality equipment and special attention to ensure the comfort and safety of each participant.
