| Laguna del Maule and El Troncoso
| Moderate Challanging
| We have done a part of this route on horseback. Other parts constitute traditional trails used by local herdsman to drive cattle up the valley El Troncoso. One part is also published by "Sendero de Chile" as [http://www.senderodechile.cl/senderos/potrero-lo-aguirre/ "Potrero Lo Aguirre"]. This trail adds 27 km, 1200 m ascent and 1300 m descent compared to the regular route of section 2. We were told that during the summer a small resupply shop opens near the trail at the Laguna del Maule. This route is recommended for hikers, that wish to explore a particular remote valley. This alternative incorporates substantially less dirt roads (only 10 km compared to 43 km of the regular route) but it requires hiking 12 km of paved road.

| Alternative to Guallali
| Easy Moderate
| This route avoids the dirt road with moderate transit traffic from the Laguna del Barco to Guallali. On satellite images the first kilometer of this route in the forest is not visible but a suitable hiking and horse trail probably exists. This route seams more attractive for hiking. Once this track is verfied and recorded it will probably be incorporated in the regular route and replace the dirt road.

| Alternative to Liucura on Ridge
| Easy Moderate
| This route avoids the 25 km of dirt road and 4 km of paved from the río Pehuenco to Liucura. On satellite images some shorter parts of this route are not visible but a suitable hiking and horse trail probably exists. This route seams more attractive for hiking. Once this track is verfied and recorded it will probably be incorporated in the regular route and replace the dirt road and the paved road.

| Short Cut to Cerro el Marcial
| Easy Moderate
| A recently uploaded wikiloc track shows a hiking and horse trail that short cuts the longer and less atractive dirt road. Once this track is verfied and recorded it will probably be incorporated in the regular route and replace the dirt road.
