Extreme rafting

For those looking for the ultimate whitewater experience, come and ride the wild, remote rapids of the Rio Maichin. Its Class III, IV, and V rapids rush through a deep, lush, granite canyon where the scenery is just as impressive as the whitewater. Your expert guide will outfit you with the latest in rafting equipment and train you in the proper paddling and safety techniques before embarking on this epic adventure. Prior rafting experience is recommended, but it is not necessary. Although steeper and more remote than the nearby Trancura Alto, this run is perfect for the experienced rafter and for the adventurous first timer.

Horseback riding

Get close to nature and enjoy a morning or romantic sunset ride along the volcanic area of the Cani mountain range (at a height of 1500 meters round the volcano) crossing through millennial forest of Coigues, Lengas, and Araucarias, finally reaching the naturally beautiful Huenulafken Lagoon.

Mellow rafting

The mellow rafting trips are all about fun and relaxation on the water. You will have the opportunity to swim and enjoy the views of nearby mountain peaks and magnificent flora and fauna as you cruise down the pristine and crystalline waters of the Rio Puesco.

Stand up paddle board

This emerging global sport is like walking on water. Unlike surfing, stand up paddle surf is very easy to learn, but provides a good core workout. Within one hour, the instructor will make you feel comfortable on your board and youll enjoy being out on Pucon's surrounding lakes.

Lymphatic drainage massage

This massage helps eliminate toxins from your body with this gentle massage that concentrates on the lymphatic system. By relieving congestion in the tissues and draining fluid from the lymph nodes, this treatment stimulates the natural cleansing process of your body and helps to promote a renewed sense of wellbeing.

Thai massage

This strong massage combines Thai massage with acupressure point work to relieve ailments such as headache, back pain, knee pain, and shoulder and neck pain caused by various conditions of physical and mental stress. The massage involves the therapist using her thumbs, palms, and fingers to apply pressure on specific points. A painful yet therapeutic massage. Not for the faint hearted.
