List of Significant Verifications and Investigations
| East of Laguna de Las Lajas
| Expedition
| This investigation project is only recommended for explorers for which the best trail is the most remote trail. A possible cross-country route may lead along the shore and ridge east of the Laguna de Las Lajasavoiding the dirt road on the western side of the lake. It remains still unclear how much vegetation may slow down the researcher of this route. In some parts smaller patches of forest are visible but large areas of this cross-country route seems to be covers by volcanic ash from the nearby volcano Antuco. Depending on the actual water level of the Laguna de Las Lajas the possible hiking route may alter; as lower the water level as more and as shorter hiking options will be available. This exploration project is also only recommended for a well experienced small group of self-reliant hikers with sufficent time and food to spend some time searching for a passable trail. Carrying a packraft may be a significant benefit to be able to aborted the route research and to return to the road on the western side of the Laguna de Las Lajas.

| East of Laguna de Las Lajas by Packraft
| - Challenging | This investigation project provides an alternative option for packrafters. It replaces the longer dirt road on the western side of the Laguna de Las Lajas by a shorter hiking and cross-country trail on the eastern side of the lake. Depending on the actual water level of the Laguna de Las Lajas the possible hiking route may alter; as lower the water level as more and as shorter hiking options will be available. If the water level is exceptionally low if might even be possible for hikers without a packraft to leave the regular route on the dirt road, cross the river to the eastern side of the lake and continue on the suspected shorter hiking and cross-country trail east of the Laguna de Las Lajas.

| Alternative to Guallali
| Moderate
| This uncomplicated trail search is recommended for hikers that dislike hiking on roads and prefer searching a one kilometer short trail section through a patch of forrest. This route avoids the dirt road with moderate transit traffic from the Laguna del Barco to Guallali. On satellite images the first kilometer a smaler part of this route in the forest is not visible but a suitable hiking and horse trail probably exists. This route trail seams more attractive for hiking. Once and once this track is verfied and recorded by GPS it will probably be incorporated in the regular route and replace the dirt road.

| Alternative to Liucura on Ridge
| Moderate
| Hikers that do not optimize for speed but enjoyment will probably prefer this trail. This route avoids the 25 km of dirt road and 4 km of paved from the río 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 and once this track is verfied and recorded by GPS it will probably be incorporated in the regular route and replace the dirt road and the paved road.
