About trip

Combine heli-skiing, ski touring and a tailored adventure program at Futangue in northern Chilean Patagonia. The official program runs in October and November for seven nights and six program days, based at Futangue Lodge & Spa and Casa Exploradores inside a private natural reserve. Heli-ski days access Cordón del Caulle and Puyehue National Park, while weather, preferences and non-skiing interests can shift the schedule toward touring, rafting, kayaking, biking, fishing, riding, hot springs and other activities. The operator does not publish a current fixed price or flight-hour allocation; both should be confirmed on request.
