*'''2025-08-25: Track file update 2025 and investigation suggestions of Jan Dudeck'''
- The Regular Route is located east of Rio Biobio to avoid walking on the primary road between Liucura and Icalma. But the Regular Route requires fording Rio Biobio. Early in the season during snowmelt, this might not be safely possible.
Southbound hikers: If the upper Rio Biobio is not safely fordable, hikers must make a 14 km detour to cross the river on a bridge near Lago Gualletue. Therefore, early in the season with river level high, hikers better walk the main road (Variant A) or even take the bus from Liucura to Icalma to avoid 30 km of road walking.
Northbound hikers: In this direction its only a 2 km detour to check out the ford location of Rio Biobio and opt for the primary road should the river level be too high.
Packrafters: With a packraft the upper Rio Biobio offers some calmer sections where ferrying over the river should be safely possible.
