== Best time of year to go ==
All year round, really. However, the place is especially beautiful in May when the leaves of the southern beech trees have turned dark orange and red. However, it could be a little bit rainier around then
 
 
== Getting there ==
  '''===By car'''===
Exit the Panamerican Highway (Ruta 5 Sur) to the East via the town of Molina, then follow the K-175, followed by the unpaved K-275 until you reach the small village of Radal, which is situated 72 km to the southeast of Molina, and serves as the gateway to the national park. You then have to keep following the same road uphill for around another 10 km in order to get the CONAF park rangers' office in Parque Inglés
In order to get to the village of Radal and the national park from Talca, you have to leave the city to the East, passing through the settlements of Lo Beño and La Placeta on the way. The first 30 km of this route are paved. The remaining 40 km consist of travelling along a decent-quality gravel road. The road does get narrow in certain spots but it has passing places, which you might have to pull into, from time to time, in order to allow oncoming traffic to go past
 
 
== By public transport and hitchhiking ==
If you miss your bus, and are short of time, you can hitchhike from Valdesina, which is a small settlement that is situated on the road between Molina and Radal. You can take one of the "Aquelarre" minibuses to Valdesina, which leave RELATIVELY frequently from Curicó, and pass through Molina's bus terminal on the way. It's just a case of riding the minibus as far as it will take you, and getting off before it turns around and goes back the other way. Bear in mind that, if you are visiting the national park outside of the peak tourist season, you will at least have to hitchhike from Radal village because, as just mentioned previously, the buses don't go beyond there outside of the busiest tourist periods.
 
 
 
== Parque Nacional 7 Tazas ==
La cordillera maulina es famosa por sus innumerables formaciones geológicas, donde la postal por excelencia es sin duda Siete Tazas, al interior del Parque Nacional Radal 7 Tazas, un espacio donde el tiempo y las prístinas aguas del Río Claro han ido labrando una escultura natural sobre el lecho rocoso, conformando una secuencia de pequeños saltos. Otros atractivos existente en el Parque y que se pueden apreciar durante los 15 kilómetros de recorrido de Sendero.
La senda transita, en su mayoría, sobre una superficie con huella natural, y otros segmentos sobre roca. El primer tramo, de 3 kilómetros, es de uso masivo. Sin embargo, en el Parque se emplaza un segmento de 350 metros habilitado para discapacitados, recorrido que incluye pasarelas de madera.
El área está emplazada en una zona de transición entre dos formaciones vegetacionales; bosque esclerófilo, y bosque caducifolios, es de gran interés científicos, pues se trata de un área conocida como "hotspots", es decir que presenta una gran riqueza de especies y un alto nivel de
 
 
== Description of the route ==
[[Archivo:Perfil_refugio_bolson.PNG|thumb|center|700px|Profile of the route]]
The starting point is the CONAF rangers' office at Parque Inglés (km 0 of the trek - 1100m above sea level). Start the walk by passing around the back of the CONAF base through a turnstile following the signs to the trails. After you get out of the CONAF base, you need to turn right onto a dirt road which then bears around to the left. Within 150 m from the CONAF base area, you'll see a path, which exits the dirt road to the right, along with a route sign pointing towards Refugio El Bolsón, and that it's four hours' walk away. This is the trail you want to take. You have to keep following it until you get to Refugio El Bolsón, ignoring all of the secondary paths that you'll see branching off to the sides of the main route as you go along (most notably, Sendero Mala Cara and Sendero La Montañita). Try not to forget this! 🙂 By the way, "sendero" means "path" in Spanish.

* Laguna Manantial Pelado

== RECOMMENDATIONS ==
 • *Before setting off on your trek, make sure you inform a ranger, at the CONAF office in Parque Inglés, of the route that you intend to follow. This is isn't just very important in case of emergency, it's also a great way to get tips and insights about the trail from the knowledgeable CONAF staff. (Obviously, some grasp of the Spanish language on your part will allow you to get a lot more out of the conversation 😉 ) • *In the national park and on the way to it, there are places where you can camp and load up on water. • *You can buy food in Radal, but it's a better idea to do so in Molina • * Try to avoid lighting fires in the campsites • *There are waste bins in the campsites. Remember to bring trash bags with you . • * It's harder to access the trail during the winter months because it can snow a lot along the route  • * If you choose to camp in Parque Inglés during the peak summer period, then make sure you keep an eye on your possessions. Opportunistic theft is certainly not unheard of around there during the busy tourist season.�
