EXPERIENCES

Very early in the morning we depart from the meeting point, with a 50 km route to the south of Punta Arenas. The Kayak with Whales begins with a navigation to the landing point with the kayaks, in order to be able to paddle alongside the humpback whales, present in this place during the season. Likewise, within the Francisco Coloane marine park, we can see different animals such as sea lions, petrels, cormorants and southern dolphins, among others. All within the majestic Patagonian landscape with mountains, glaciers and forests... At the end, we will begin the return trip to Punta Arenas, where the excursion ends.

We leave from the hotel towards Tierra Mayor Valley. Our Musher instructor will welcome us and give us an introductory chat about the dogsledding world, while we visit the kennels. Then we´ll receive the instructions about sled assembly and driving techniques. We´ll put the harnesses on the dogs, we hitch them to the sled and off we go! This intense adventure is great fun! As we go, our sled caravan heads into the snowy valley until we arrive at Refugio del Hachero, where we´ll recover energy with some hot beverages. After a short rest, mushers and dogs continue the journey through forests, frozen rivers and experiencing the magic white silence. Maximum 8 pax and 4 sleds. Passengers must be in good health, must like dogs and have a team spirit. Dogsledding is comparable to cross country skiing, so reasonable fitness is required.

We leave Mendoza City to head for Potrerillos Dam, which is surrounded by huge mountains. We will, literally, fly across mountains and the Mendoza River hanging from a harness.
