Climate The Patagonian Temperate Rainforest is located in Chilean territory, between 38 30 S and 55 30 S latitudes, east of the Andes Mountain range. It is known for its abundant, year-round precipitation and for its temperate summers (with temperatures reaching 30 C/86 F). This rainy climate is due to the humidity carried by the anticyclonic winds from the South Pacific, which then condenses due to the cold coastal currents of Humboldt. The humidity falls as rain when it enters the continent, and then dissipates when it reaches the Andes upon colliding with the dry winds that come from the Argentinian Patagonia region. Physical Demand The Huilo Huilo Multi-Adventure Program combines different disciplines and outdoor sports such as mountain biking, trekking, rafting and zip-line/canopy. Day 2 of the program requires the greatest physical effort. Trekking activities (10 km) and mountain bike (6 kilometers) are performed on rocky terrain with steep slopes up and down, by trail or road in the middle the forest. The rafting activity is active and challenging, on category III / IV rapids. The team constantly paddles to correct direction, and navigation time is approximately 2 hours, throughout the entirety of which you will have contact with water. The zip-line/ canopy activity requires no particular physical condition except a maximum weight of 100 kilos (220 lb.) to perform the activity. Physical fitness and health is required for the entire program. If you have any special conditions that could be an impediment, consult before making your booking to avoid inconveniences. What You Shouldn t Forget It is very important to come prepared for winter and summer in all trips. It is important to bring a comfortable backpack for trekking (minimum 3 liters/ 1 gallon), trekking shoes, windbreaker, parka, comfortable to walking shorts, swimsuit, camera, headlamp, sunscreen, sunglasses, enough spare clothes in case of rain, hat, and / or bandana. It is important to bring cash if you want to buy souvenirs. Many amenities have enabled credit card payment system, but there are no ATMs to withdraw money in case you need to buy local crafts.
