The Information centre at Villa Futalaufquen said the trail is closed, no one has hiked there in 2 years & there are a lot of fallen trees across the trail

* 2023-Mar-05 / SOBO / RR + 25H-F and 25H-01 / 1.5 days / Martin & Helena
 +
 
 +
We followed RR for the first 10kms until the barbed wire fence. It was well marked and maintained. We spent the night before settler waypoint at around km 8, there are many good campspots around this part with nice view of the mountains and lake, but no water, that is actually after the settlement. At around km 10 we jumped on the main road to save some time as the trail seemed to become a little less visible and with barbed wire fences in front of us. Later we continued with the F option to connect back to RR.
 +
 
 +
Once back on the RR, we were not sure which way to take next, bc recent report stated that bush-bashing is involved on the RR. We decided to go with the shorter, but suspiciously straight Option 1. It is nice MR in the beginning, later leading into the forest where you follow a clear trail. It kind of disappears after reaching the river, where you have 2 options. It seemed like the trail continues with the western option but we soon run into a very thorny bush field with some barbed wires on the ground which made us to look for a different way. We tried to go around without success bc of dense bamboo, so we got back to try the other, a little shorter    C option. It turned out to be pure bush bashing without any trail to follow, full of fallen trees and dense bush. Very slow pace. After around 2 hrs we connected back to the RR trail that is marked with little color flags. We have seen them from different directions so there might be some path to follow, that would avoid that long BB. After you reach the MR, there is a settler waypoint, that is now a refugio, but we didn’t check. The way down is without problem. Couple of small shops in Aldea Escolar. We asked for cabana in the first one we met and were lucky.

As rivers were running high & the route was officially closed I went around it on the road. 1 day Villa Futalaufquen-Trevelen then 2 hours to Aldea Escolar
 +
 
 +
* 2020-Jan-15-16 / Shaun / Regular hiking route southbound
 +
 
 +
The southbound start of this section is now open and so there is no need to initially re-route along the road. The trail is overgrown in a number of places which slows progress. But the only tricky piece was a few kms around km14 where the trail disappeared several times under bushes or fallen bamboo for a little while. But it always reappeared exactly where the gps projected. There were lovely views in many places along the section, especially early on where the past fire damage allows you to see a ring of mountains in every direction.

Trevelin is a large town with all necessary amenities for resupply and rest.La Anonima supermarket is 2KM south of the centre. There are 2 shops with hiking gear. Lodging options are primarily cabañas, but there is one local hospidaje. A bus to Esquel, a slightly larger town with more grocery and lodging options, runs every hour for 42 pesos. It is also worth noting there is a hospital in both towns. Although we spent a fair amount of time in the Esquel hospital, we heard rumours the Trevelin one was way nicer. Who were we to complain though, Argentinean healthcare is free!
