It great experience - It was great experience despite the weather was not perfect and Vulcan was in fog there was still a lot to see - beauty of Chilean nature. Trip was very well organised and I felt very safe with our guide Blas. In the finalisation of the trip we were resting in Termas Geométricos - fantastic place built with great taste and everyone can enjoy time in plenty of natural pools.

Private trek with an excellent guide - This trek is tough but well worth it for the views of the Volcano. Steep uphill followed by steep downhill. Only about 3 hours in total. Blas our guide was amazing . He was so helpful anytime we needed a bit of assistance. He provided poles for us which were a game changer. He drove us about two hours to the start. Very well organised. The hot springs were a great antidote to the trek. Very interesting place with lots of different pools for bathing. Locker & key provided so all your stuff is safe. I would suggest bringing a change of clothes so you travel back in fresh clothes.

tremendous experience - We had such a wonderful experience with Bos. The intense uphill was so worth it, as Bos was a supportive and smart navigator. We saw four volcanoes from the top! And the fact that the trek ended in these extraordinary hot springs was so unique -- most tour operators do not have access to this land. Highlight of our trip to Chile.

Highly recommended activity for nature and hiking lovers - The site on a private land is very beautiful. The hike can be a bit sporty with thick snow and an ascending grade from the beginning, but is very worthwhile. Due to the weather the view of the volcanos from the top was obstructed. But the forest with the snow and nature sound was so beautiful that it didn’t matter. On a clearer day with the view the hike must be even more fantastic for sure. Blas, the guide and owner of the agency, is very professional and highly experienced in mountain hiking and trekking. He provided good technical advices and made the hike very pleasant and fun. The geométrical termas on the way back from the hike sounded like a reward. They are located between two verdant rocky sides from wich flows a stream. The falls and the snow on the sides and around the several hot pools and the famous red walkways made the magic of the spot. In a snowy day, fight the cold and jump into the hot pools, you won’t regret it! It is the perfect option to relax after a hike. The termas are very clean, well organized and the staff is nice. Highly recommended activity! Many thanks, Blas, for this pleasant day!

Great Volcano and Hot Springs Experience. - The trek is tough towards the start, but becomes more manageable as you climb higher. Along the way, I learned about the local plant life and culture, and saw amazing landscape views of the area. The summit is beautiful, especially with the light snowfall going on when I was there. The much-deserved hot springs afterwards is very relaxing too. Even though it was winter and the weather was cold, the springs were great, with several pools in different temperatures. Staff was also very friendly and accommodating!

Magnificent experience! - It's beautiful! The climb is difficult, I couldn't make it to the end (I gave up halfway through), mostly because I didn't see the point in climbing any further when in fact what I wanted was to go to the thermal baths hahahaha The guide Flavio was very patient with me, very kind, respectful and polite at all times. Well, and the hot springs at the end were incredible. Along the way the view is beautiful, the thermal baths are equally wonderful! I recommend!

Awesome adventure! - The hike was excellent, and the views were incredible at the top. It was pretty steep at some parts, so if you are new to hiking, I would recommend to go very slow. Mariana was an excellent guide, and was very knowledgeable of the plants and other species around. We were able to finish up our day at the incredible hot springs. These are the largest springs I’ve ever been to. There were so many to choose from, and a beautiful waterfall at the top. I highly recommend this adventure!

Moderately challenging hike - Rodrigo was a great guide, very knowledgeable about flora/fauna, friendly, and fun to chat with. I hiked with my sister (we are 31 and 29 years old, fairly active people). We tried to contact the tour operator (Rutas Outdoors) several times via phone and WhatsApp prior to booking to see if it was suitable for our father (63, has had a hip replacement) and unfortunately never got any responses back. He didn’t end up coming which turned out to be very good - this hike is NOT suitable if you have any health conditions or fitness concerns. It was about 1-1.5 hours hours of steep upwards climbing, and several scrambles over fallen trees. We definitely earned the views at the top and the soak in the thermal pools afterwards!
