Journey to the High Lakes
A 11 day adventure traveling to the remote
alpine lakes of the central Andean wilderness
| Dates: |
February 16 - February 26, 2009 |
Riding Ability:C
Each year a few of our more adventurous clients, returning from our "Crossing the Andes" adventure, would ask if we would consider offering another long horse ride into the wilderness of the high cordillera. In 2005, our head horse guide Liliana "Gordita" Astorga, dusted off her topo maps, saddled up her horse and rode off with several friends and arrieros in search of new territories to see if she could do just that. Heading south from our ranch "Cascada de las Animas" along the spine of the Andes, they found a wilderness of incomparable beauty and splendor. They covered over 300 kilometers riding through high mountain passes, across uninhabited valleys, crossed roaring rivers and camped alongside beautiful lakes before returning on a circuitous route back to the Cascada de las Animas ranch. Gordita came back as excited about this trip as any that she has done. This ride took them into some of Chile's wildest and most remote areas. The group didn't see another person until they came down out of the mountains. This year we are offering you the chance to repeat this journey with us. Gordita will be leading this trip during the peak of the summer season here in Chile and the expectations are high that she will continue to find new places to explore during this trip. We expect this trip to fill up fast with returning clients so contact us early if you are interested...
