The Pichi Lagoon excursion starts on an easy trail that borders the Riñinahue River, with lookouts on pools and waterfalls. You then enter the native forest that will take you to a beautiful lagoon set in an amphitheater of mountains and cascades. You can take a 10-minute trail from the lagoon to the Pichi Volcano lookout, or a longer one to the lava fields.

Parque Futangue is a privately protected natural reserve in southern Chile, located in the Andes near Lake Ranco. It preserves vast areas of temperate rainforest, volcanic landscapes, rivers, and native wildlife, including endangered species. Its importance for conservation lies in protecting biodiversity, restoring degraded ecosystems, and promoting sustainable tourism.

The park also supports scientific research and environmental education, helping people understand fragile ecosystems. By maintaining native forests and watersheds, it contributes to climate regulation and water conservation. Parque Futangue stands as a model of how private initiatives can complement public efforts in safeguarding nature.
