Corralco

In the summer season, trekking routes to the geological Cráter Navidad and mountain biking circuits are enabled. In addition, the complex has lodging at the foot of the slopes and local gastronomy, also being located near thermal baths and sighting points for native fauna such as foxes and condors.
