Parque Nacional Huerquehue

A wonderful experience from start to finish. They did have one English speaking ranger at the entrance who checked us in and was able to give us the hiking options in the park. All the trails are well marked and easy to follow. We hiked the Los Lagos trail and there were excellent bathroom facilities in the beginning of the trail. Hiking among the monkey puzzle trees was an experience of a lifetime!

Very good hiking to the 3 lakes. A lot of steep uphill at the start and then steep downhill at the end through twisty roots. Hiking poles recommended, or pick up some of the abandoned hiking sticks near the start if you are lucky enough to find some. Make sure to buy your entry passes a couple of days in advance: you won't get in if you go there without, and it is a long way there.

Perfect hike with magical scenery. The snow made it more difficult than usual, but also led to a different hiking experience overall. One can do the three first lakes in 4-5 hours. Definitely recommend this hike

This is a beautiful park! We hiked on the Tres Lagos trail and added on Lago Patos and Lago Huerquehue. The trails are pretty well maintained but the further lakes' trail is a bit less traveled and you can tell. Be prepared for a significant amount of elevation gain! We had over 1000 meters doing all five lakes and the two waterfalls along the way. The upper loop is really cool because you actually get among the Aracaunia (Monkey Puzzle) trees and many of them are quite large. Make sure you reserve your entry in advance as cell service is quite bad in the park.

This is a wonderful parc and definitely worth a stop if you have the time. If you have to choose we would recommend Parque Conquillio more ☺️. The trails do offer some beautiful views of the lagunas on the one side and Volcano Villarica on the other side. There are longer and shorter trails that are medium difficulty. Enjoy the beauty!

Nice park, friendly staff at the gate. We arrived just after 2pm and they luckily let us in. Not enough time to do the full hike to all the lakes, but saw a couple. We were able to buy tickets at the entrance on a self service machine. We paid with card.

We did the hike to the lakes (Los lagos). The start is a bit hard but after getting to the first lake there are no major ascents. The view to the Villarica is great and the water in the lakes are refreshing.

This place is absolutely awesome! The san Sebastian trail is not the easiest but the view from the top is absolutely worth it. If you start hiking early its very nice. The camping area is pretty nice and has warm water. 100% recommended!
