One of the most beautiful border crossings in Chile, Paso El Le\u00f3n connects the R\u00edo Puelo basin with the Argentine border through an old muleteer corridor. The journey begins in the town of R\u00edo Puelo and combines a vehicle section with a final three-hour walk, immersed in an environment of mountains and Valdivian forest. <\/p>\n\n

The trail borders the turquoise waters of the river as it runs through remote landscapes, nestled between steep rock walls and native vegetation. The area allows you to go horseback riding, practice fly fishing, and explore access routes to glacial lagoons in the high mountains. <\/p>\n\n
