Fundo Laguna Blanca is located in southern Chile, in the region Araucania near the town of Curacautin. Just as the three surrounding national parks, the 1200 hectare Fundo offers miscellaneous views. Besides the striking distance to the three volcanoes Tolhuaca, Lonquimay and Llaima, the visitor finds undisturbed natural forests and one of the last large population of the araucaria-tree. Within this unique property lies the Laguna Blanca - one of the most beautiful little mountain lakes in Chile!
Visitors to Fundo Laguna Blanca can look forward to many activities. The extensive network of hiking trails leads through the natural forests to the lake and to the foothills of the two volcanoes Tolhuaca and Lonquimay, which can also be climbed directly from here. This is an ideal environment for hiking, mountaineering, horse riding trips or excursions in the volcanic landscapes by jeep.
