Things to do in Pucon, Araucania Region: The Best Outdoor Activities

September 29, 2021 Tambra Mccollister

Deep in the Patagonian Andes, Pucon is a picture perfect town accessed by plane in summer or by a nine-hour drive or train ride from Santiago. A great base for adventure vacations, Pucon is crammed with visitors during summer months December, January and February. Watch molten magma ooze down Mount Villarrica, hop between hot and cold thermal pools at Termas Geometricas or take the reigns of Criollo horses to explore the Andes on horseback. For other expeditions, rent a car or mountain bike.

Campo Antilco

Get to know the northern Patagonian Andes and its people the most natural way: on horseback. Not just following your guide: riding your horse is the aim. Our well trained and sure stepping Criollo horses, together with the professional bilingual guides make it possible. Whether beginner or expert: everyone can experience his own personal freedom on horseback. Come and share the experience of being out in the mountains!

I had an amazing experience with Campo. The horses are great and the half-day ride was just amazing. I wish I had more time to do the entire day and even the 5-day tour. You discover nature in a different way and you learn about the history of the people of Pucon. Great experience and they made sure that everyone had a horse according to their previous experience.

We spent a great afternoon in the Pillar canyon with Miguel and Eduardo from Canyoning Pucón. They were friendly and professional. What's more, we were provided all the gear including gortex shoes. We always felt safe and had a lot of fun. We highly recommend this activity with this agency for everyone who likes nature, water and a bit of adrenaline.
