Tips

Beyond the Horizon

October 18, 2024

Lago Chico, in the breathtaking nature of the Andes, offers a relaxing retreat for all hikers who want to enjoy peace and nature. The trail takes you through a wide, open landscape framed by the snow-capped peaks of the mountains. Particularly striking are the rolling hills and the expansive meadows, which in this region are often interspersed with small bushes and isolated trees. It is an ideal place to let your thoughts wander, feel the cool breeze from the lake and take in the expansive silence.

The shore of the lake invites you to take a rest. Here you can enjoy the view of the calm waters while the mountain backdrop is reflected in the water. The region around Lago Chico also offers some interesting paths for short hikes that take you deeper into the area. A great place to end the day and enjoy the peace of nature.

A tip: pack a small snack, sit on the shore and observe nature - sometimes an eagle flies over the mountains or you see small animals near the lake. There is a wonderful, almost mystical atmosphere here, especially in the early morning hours or late afternoon.
