• Salto El Puquen - Upon entering the park, visitors will embark on a two-hour walk along a trail that follows the cliff’s edge, offering breathtaking views of the rugged landscape and the Pacific Ocean. El Puquen Nature Reserve hosts around three hundred species of animals and plants, with nearly half being endemic. Besides its rich biodiversity, the bio-reserve showcases geological wonders, such as perfectly flat terraces created by natural erosion along the Chilean Pacific coast. From these natural balconies, visitors can spot sea lions and various birds. Another highlight is the “cold geysers” formations - narrow vertical caves about thirty meters high. One of these “geysers” is particularly remarkable and is named Puquen, meaning “whale” in the indigenous Chilean language. After the walk, the group will return to Los Molles village to enjoy lunch at one of the seafood restaurants.
