Futangue Hotel
Hotel overview:
Futangue is a new hotel and nature reserve seated at the foot of the Andes in Chile's Lake District. Experience the volcanic Puyehue National Park and the biodiversity of the Valdivian rainforest, and roam 110 kilometres of quiet trails of spectacular fauna, untouched flora, mesmerising lakes, and ancient forests.
Why We Like This Hotel
- Host to a secluded network of 110km of trails, based within the Valdivian rainforest, and just outside of the volcanic Puyehue National Park, the scope for out-of-this-world type adventuring is phenomenal.
- Located in Futangue Park, it’s more remote and less crowded than many other options, but it’s still well-connected, with a transfer from Santiago in just three hours, and the opportunity to combine with trips from Puerto Varas to Pucón.
- Unique and elegant in design, Futangue's exterior is characterised by native wood, while the large communal interior spaces celebrate national artists and the Mapuche culture.
- Embrace nature photography opportunities, trek or bike in lush meadows and forests, or pass the magical islands of Lake Ranco navigating by kayak or boat.
- There are great spa facilities with an outdoor lap pool, indoor/outdoor jacuzzi and plenty of lounging areas around the entire hotel.

Excursions
Futangue Hotel boasts a year-round offering of excursions of all kinds. Climb volcanoes, bike through untouched forests, kayak at turquoise waterfalls, sail on pristine lakes, fish for a rare catch, watch birds, or rest in hot springs. Amidst these adventures, enjoy cultural visits to charming local villages.
Most excursions are operated within the reserve, but a selection will take you further afield in the Lake Ranco area. You'll be transported to all start and end points, and will be accompanied by guides throughout the activity. You can choose between full-day excursions with lunch included, or two half-day excursions, returning to the hotel for lunch in between.
Excursions can be booked at the hotel, with guides able to make recommendations. Please note that all excursions are subject to availability and weather conditions.
Hiking & Biking
Hike or bike through the native forests of this private nature reserve to reach Lake Pichi, nestled in an amphitheatre of majestic mountains and waterfalls. Hike to the summit of Cerro Mayo which offers incredible 360° views of snow-capped volcanoes and Lake Ranco, or bike into a remote and almost unexplored river of volcanic lava.
Hikes and bike rides range in difficulty from relaxed to strenuous and duration from a few hours to a full day. Some include transport to the start/end points and others are combined with kayaking or nature spotting and photography. Guides set a pace to suit the individual guests on each trip and will stop along the way to point out details and draw attention to the wildlife.

Fly Fishing
Enjoy world-class fishing for rainbow and brown trout, surrounded by native forest at Lake Pichi. Expert boatmen will ensure you stop at the best spots.
Fishing is mainly done from the boat, but there are also opportunites to fish from the lake shore around the main tributary.

Kayaking
Kayak trips are available and taking to the water is not only an amazing way to see your surroundings from a different perspective, but to also forge your own way into areas otherwise restricted in access.
Paddle on Lake Pichi, nestled amid lush vegetation and forest-covered mountains. These trips last for half a day and are suitable for beginners.
Lake Pichi
There’s a huge network of trails in the park that offer fantastic hiking and biking. There’s even a special trail for Darwin frogs, but we saw plenty of them even in areas where they weren’t expected.
