– Termas Geometricas a Japanese-inspired labyrinth of hot springs that is hidden in the forest, a stunning maze of red planks that wind through the trees like something out of a mythological Japanese wonderland. Suspended over a flowing stream, the red  walkways leading to the various pools are made entirely of wood that stands out in stark contrast to the surrounding wilderness.

The sister town of Ranco is opposite the lake, and both towns rest within the base of the Andes Mountains in the Region of Rivers of Chile. Futrono’s local ancestral culture is a mixture of Mapuches-Huilliches, whom still live in the commune to this day. “Huilliche” means “Southern people” in Mapundungun (the language of the Mapuche people).

The Huilliche people were experts in foraging, hunting, fishing and animal husbandry. These activities allowed them to live a majorly sedentary lifestyle, where they could focus on developing their culture principally in the arts (textiles and craftsmanship) and cuisine.

The Huilliches are geographically concentrated in lakes Maihue and Ranco, both located in the pre-mountain range of the Andes and connected through the Calcurrupe river.

In Futrono, one can enjoy the following activities:
• Canopy activities within nature.
• Trekking through natural trails.
• Horseback through natural trails.
• Recreational fishing and tourism, guests can also opt to fly fish! Among the main species that are abundant in the rivers in the area we can find Rainbow Trout, Cold Trout, Perca Trucha, and the Chilean Silverside.
