Senderos de Huilo Huilo

Today’s trek was through the rain forest
to view waterfalls.
Huilo Huilo Falls
The hike through the rain forest revealed
some incredible tree specimens.

For your edification:

“The Huilo Huilo Biological Reserve in Chile is a temperate rain forest rich in biodiversity, characterized by its ancient Nothofagus-type forest. Key tree species include towering coigües, lengas, ñirres, tepas, olivillos, arrayanes, mañíos, and the prominent ulmo, with some
trees reaching over 40 meters.”

It’s great to be a geezer in Chile
Hiking down the valley for around 30 minutes, we came across another
roaring waterfall – Salto del Puma.
There were 3 viewing hammocks situated around a giant Nothofagus dombeyi, or Coihue tree.
They made it fun to lay back and comfortably view
the top of the woodland giant!
