*'''GPT06 I 2016-02-02 to 2025-02-07 I 5,5 days | hiking | SOBO I Route: option 6 - 6B - 2 | Chris & Lotte '''Parque Ingles & El Bolson are, contrary to Conaf Website, not closed! That post from march 2025 is outdated. We wanted to confirm the exploratory option 6 along Rio Claro and then an unnamed river up to Laguna Caracol towards La Mina but had to change plans and "escape the green hell" (more on that in the facebook group) towards Los Venados via Option 6B. Option 6: we followed the MR which after a landslide became a well-maintained trail. At some point it diverts, but asking an arriero (name may have been Otto), he opened one of the gates and told us, thats probably the way we are looking for. The gate was quite strongly marked with no entrado and that it belongs to a David. The trail deteriorated quickly after the last puesto in the woods, but could be followed at times. After the last puesto on the riverbank the trail ends in front of a cliff. Going up or around did not seem feasible, but the ford was quite simple. The OSM-trail on the other side can be taken therefore instead, which is well-maintained until the Puesto of Roberto. After that there is a nice camp spot. Fording to get back to the trail was tricky. We searched long until we found a feasible ford and had to abort one try at anlther location. This ford was quite strong and still high and may have been possible due to the draught. In a wetter year it should be carefully assessed.The 70m to the trailhead were a initiation to what was about to come. We battled through. Out of nowhere the trail appeared. Overgrown, but mostly visible. At times it gets lost in forrests, where fierce battles took place. After reaching the riverbed again, the trail got nicer, at times even marked by stones. One more overgrown valley could be avoided by climbing onto the lava on the left and catch up with the trail a few kms up. We had only gotten 10-13km/day at this point, so food got an issue, but we were also tired of smashing though bushes and walls lf blackberries, so we decided to abort. Option 6B: easy going, trail all the way, quite scenic. SOBO there is a gate that can be passed saying "no entrance". *'''GPT06 2026-1-30 to 2026-02-02 /4 days / hiking / SOBO / Route: RR Parque Inglés to Los Alamos / Hermann '''
Had contacted and paid Tamara, Don Victor’s daughter but hadn’t received anything back from her. Bus to Parque Ingles from Molina at 8:30. Needed authorization to cross through park and out the other end, easily given. Lots of traffic to El Bolsón, 12km, then nobody. Camped at Laguna las Animas, beautiful.
2nd day, Thunderstorm in afternoon approaching Pass {06} [34.0/2695], emergency camped at -35.51872, -70.74771. Nice spot, plenty of water around.
