Our farm/ranch is located  in the heart of the peninsula between Puerto Montt and Calbuco.  Rolling fields, old growth forest, and amazing views of five volcanoes make it an excellent place to get away from it all.  WWOOF volunteers would be welcome to camp,  there are several beautiful pastures.   Family encharged. Volunteers would be welcome to plant tree seedlings - The Tenio Natural Reserve is dedicated to forest preservation and growth of native trees (like the Tenio Tree).  There is more to Southern Chile than Pucon - Explore the difference!  Puerto Montt, 657 miles (1,058 km) south of the capital Santiago, is the gateway to Chile's remote, picturesque Patagonia region of glacial lakes, towering snowcapped peaks, and volcanoes that are a magnet for adventure tourism.  The Tenio Natural Reserve, located between Puerto Montt and Chiloe in beautiful Putenio, is at the heart of it all on your way to Patagonia!

My name is Thomas, I am from Holland , I travelled around the world several times and came across this natural paradise in Patagonia , Chile. I fell in love with the valley , the waterfalls , the untouched jungle (Cold Jungle) I am active and enterprising , I need help building log cabins , perfecting my dams, turbines and windgenerators to make electricity. I also bought materials to build a katamaran and heaps of tools for all kinds of mad scientist projects. I own this beach right on the estuary. Plenty of fishing seafood , swimming kayaking and more. Dolphins and curious sealions often come spy on us strange human beings . I heard a ferocious roar of a puma (american lyon) a while ago. All I need is a few helping hands as the challenges of survival in pure unadulterated nature are many . Lodging in tent, meals rich in fishs. Come see . Adelante. Bienvenidos!
To arrive, take a night bus from Terminal de buses to Puerto Montt .
