THE TRIP
​
There is something magical in the Futaleufú, something unique that connects you to its untouched beauty. From the first moment you will fell in love with this place.
Using the “Kriminal Lake House” as a base camp, just a short drive from Futaleufú village, our adventure begins. We will warm up on the Macal section (class III+) or, in case of high water on, we will explore the Espolon river (class II-III) and the Azul river (III-IV).
Our aim is to hone your skills on big water paddling running as much Futa sections possible, challenging you day by day. Yet, the dynamic nature of the Futa demands caution; water levels can fluctuate rapidly due to dam releases on the Argentinian side, potentially limiting access to certain sections. Our choice of runs will be influenced by the group’s level, ensuring a safe and enjoyable journey for all.
Between the adventure, we'll find moments of tranquility, savoring wholesome homemade meals and embracing the simplicity of Patagonia's life, breathing in the essence of pristine Nature along the way
