Description

The Lanín volcano stretches 3,776 meters above sea level, making it the highest volcano in the Araucanía region. It’s located on the border of Chile and Argentina, but we always climb from Chilean side. Its long and tiring ascent will be rewarded by an incredible view from the summit where you will be able to admire several volcanoes, lakes, and huge expanses of forests, including those in the Andes mountain range. This activity lasts two full days. Day 1: 6am: We meet at our agency where we will give you all the necesary equipment for the adventure. We have around 1h driving to reach the base of the volcano. 8am: Begining of the climb. We will start from 1200masl, and hike until 2700 or 2900masl aprox, to reach a good place to camp. 2pm/4pm: Arriving at 29000masl, from here we will install the tents, cook and rest during all the afternoon. We will enjoy an amazing sunset from the mountain! We include you a warm dinner. Day 2: 4am/5am: After having breakfast (included), we will start our second hike day, with light backpacks: we will leave tents and sleeping bags here and climb with less equipment. 10am: Expected time to arrive to the summit. From here you will enjoy a view of 15 volcanoes! The descent will last around 6 hours 6pm: Back to the car 7pm/8pm: Back to Pucón, where you will enjoy a fresh beer or juice and a snack with your guides. The dificulty of this hike is high. You need a very good physical condition.
