Vilches Alto

First stop on our road trip was Vilches Alto, a small community around 300km south of Santiago. We met up with our friend Patrick and headed to a refugio in the mountains. We enjoyed some evening walks on peaceful forest trails to view points in the Reserva Nacional Altos de Lircay which overlooked waterfalls and the Tres Cuernos peak.
