PC - SPA / BODY AND SOUL / 5DAYS - 4NIGHTS

Regular Departures: Mondays, Tuesday and Thursdays

The soothing powers of water
The waters of our spa are naturally pure, the source being just meters from the Lodge. Here three different waters converge: seawater, thermal water and water right from the waterfall. And at our, Spa, you can enjoy the benefits of all three in one place. It’s important to find ways to alleviate the stress of our daily lives, to find places to reenergize, and to reclaim the good feeling of well being. Here you’ll be able to benefit from relaxation massages and specially from thalassotherapy treatments.

Day 1 / Balmaceda - Puyuhuapi
Reception in the Balmaceda airport. Begin tour through the Aysen region, crossing during 45 min Patagonian
pampas to reach the city of Coyhaique. Along the way we are likely to spot pairs of caiquenes (wild goose) and flocks of bandurrias (storks) through the grasses. The vast remains of burned over forests are vestiges of the region’s recent colonization period. After a short visit to the city, we continue on, following the Simpson River until we reach Puerto Chacabuco (1:15 hr), where the PATAGONIA EXPRESS catamaran waits to take us on a 5-hour cruise through the southern fjords and channels to reach our destination: the Puyuhuapi Lodge & Spa. Welcome!

Day 2, 3 and 4 / Puyuhuapi Lodge & Spa
Surrounded by lush vegetation, and accessible only by sea, this unique Lodge is where understated luxury and a well-planned simplicity combine to create a unique atmosphere. The Lodge offers thermal outdoor pools at the edge of the sea, footpaths for walks through the cold forest, visits to the Queulat National
Park with its Hanging Glacier, easy bicycle trips along the Austral Road, or, if you wish, you can explore the Dorita Bay in boats or kayaks.
The Spa’s facilities are complete. Enjoy its large hydro-massage pool, Jacuzzis, spring - water fountain, and steam sauna, and then reap the benefits of thalassotherapy sessions, relaxation massages, and facial and other treatments. Restore your body’s energy and recover your spirit’s equilibrium, with 4 treatments per day.

Day 5 / Puyuhuapi - Balmaceda
At 7:30 am we board the motor-launch and cross the Puyuhuapi Channel to return by austral road to Coyhaique. Along the way we are likely to see the diversity of the region, much of the trip is along a gravel road that passes through extraordinary landscapes of dense forests between mountains and cliffs, reaching Coyhaique and then continue on to the airport of Balmaceda to take your flight back to Puerto Montt or Santiago. Bon Voyage & Hasta la Vista! (Program operating on Mondays and Thursdays entering by the Carretera Austral, 6 hours by land transfer).
