Forest accommodation in a fairytale mountain
Originally a place for friends to stay while they enjoyed the hunting and fishing resources of the Hulio Hulio reserve, the name is from a favourite book of the owners. The story describes a mountain that has magical powers and grants wishes – The Magic Mountain. With a waterfall cascading from the pinnacle of the roof, the lodge is indeed a special place.
As you’d expect from staying somewhere remote, your senses become tuned to the vibrant ecosystem of the forest. Condors and eagles in the air, pumas on the ground.
Waking with the dawn and enjoying nature, surrounded by a surreal structure.
While you’re some way from civilization, the lodge is self-sufficient and has a restaurant "Meson del Bosque" - The Forest Table. All meals are taken here and you’ll get the opportunity to sample some really good Chilean cooking. When the weather is cold, try their Pastel de Papas – a mixture of mashed potatoes, onion, olives, egg and meat cooked in the oven. A recommendation for those with a sweet tooth is to try it with sugar but beware! Too large a portion will leave you unable to do anything except snooze. Lighter fare includes the Chilean staple of Cazuela – a meat or chicken soup with potatoes. Spice it up with “Merquen” - the Mapuche’s local red pepper. During the evening the restaurant provides a bar where you can enjoy the traditional Chilean Pisco Sour. Made of grape liqueur, mixed with lemon juice and sugar it is particularly refreshing. Take care however, Pisco Sour is easy to drink and a hangover this far from a pharmacy is particularly painful if you’ve forgotten to pack aspirin.
