Parque Nacional Lauca (Chile) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Parque Nactional Lauca in Chile.
In the northernmost region of Chile and in the eastern border region with Bolivia, extends a natural wonder that is one of the most elevated locations on Earth and one of the most natural of nature reserves, the Parque Nacional Lauca. The slopes of the undulating high plateau are covered with volcanic sand that cannot retain water. A bodefal is a wetland that forms at the bottom of the valleys between the hills and without them, livestock breeding would be impossible. Vicunas, Lamas and Alpacas graze on the green pasture within the demanding landscape and the wetlands provide good nourishment for both plant and wild life. The Lago Chungara is the highest lake on Earth and, yying at an altitude of nearly five thousand metres above sea level, it is even featured in the Guinness Book Of Records! This is the realm of the Aymara Indians and in their mythology this wild land and its volcanoes are sacred and indeed, part of the family. In all its splendour and originality, the Parque Nacional Lauca is one of the finest natural wonders on Earth.

Watch: Time Lapse of Pucón Huerquehue Gives Glimpse of Chile’s Natural Beauty
By Tom Garmeson / Special to the Santiago Times
There’s only one bus to Huerquehue each morning from Pucón, and it leaves early.
Indeed, most of the usually bustling tourist town was still sleeping off the previous night’s excesses as we pulled out of the terminal; the sun still barely above the horizon. We dozed as the bus trundled along the highway, passing the little farms and squat cottages which dot the Araucanian countryside.
Arriving at the park an hour later, the passengers unloaded and lined up outside the small CONAF cabin to pay the entrance fee. The official on duty inside was a picture of contentedness. He smiled and joked while noting down nationalities, and had the air of a man who had found what he wanted, and didn’t need anything else.
We opted for the “Tres Lagos” (Three Lakes) hike; a five-hour round trip which is one of the easiest routes in the park, but still involves some 500 metres of ascent to reach the end of the trail.
Setting off, we cut through the dense, temperate rainforest along the edge of Lago Tinquilco, whose water matched the deep green of the surrounding trees. The footpath soon opened out into fields of sheep and pigs, and passed through a couple of campsites perched on the shores of the lake. Looking up, thick, grey mist drifted over nearby hills as the trail plunged once again into the forest.
We soon began to climb, and the lush, humid landscape gave way to a sparser, drier climate above. Before long the sun had burned off what remained of the morning fog, and gaps in the trees allowed for brief glimpses of the lake below; now a dazzling blue. Small lizards, sunning themselves on the path, scuttled away as we passed by. We began to see the unmistakable outline of Chile’s national tree; the araucaria, towering over us at a height of up to 40 metres.
At a couple of points the trail winds back on itself, and hikers who stop for a rest at the bend are rewarded with magnificent views of the snow-capped Villarrica volcano in the distance, enveloped by ever-shifting clouds. There are also a few waterfalls along the way which are well worth the slight detour needed to reach them.
The rewards for hours of uphill hiking are the three stunning lakes at the top which give the trail its name. Lago Chico, Lago Verde and Lago Toro all lie at over 1200 metres above sea level, but are separated from each other only by a few minutes walking, and all three are beautiful in their own right.
Surrounded by araucaria forests hung upon dramatic cliff-faces, they are the perfect end to a trail which, for me, ranks among the best that Chile has to offer.
Return bus trip from Pucón to Huerquehue national park: $3.600
National park entrance fee: $3.000 for Chileans, $5.000 for foreigners

Lauca National Park Travel Video
Lauca National Park Travel Video, most spectacular feature is the glistening Lago Chungará, one of the worlds highest lakes and particularly abundant with bird life.
Looming over it is the impossibly perfect cone of Volcán Parinacota, a dormant volcano with a twin brother, Volcán Pomerape, just across the border. These pristine white-capped volcanoes could almost be painted onto the landscape, but the ominous Volcán Guallatire puffs up dark fumes a short distance to the south.

East Africa Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination East Africa.
East Africa is one of the most beautiful and diverse landscapes in the world and its magnificent wilderness and fascinating wildlife is one of the few remaining unspoiled regions on earth. Lake Naivasha is the ideal habitat for both the rare Fish Eagle and African Eagle, thus it is a perfect location from which to observe these fascinating birds. Due to its rich variety of wildlife and the spectacular beauty of its landscape Kenya is one of Africa’s most popular safari destinations. The Massai Mara National Park is located around six hours from Nairobi and is one of the country’s most extraordinary game reserves. Its name indicates the presence of one of Africa’s most colourful tribes, the Massai. The Amboseli National Park also contains many of East Africa’s most important landscapes and represents the magnificence of the African flora and fauna that grows in this relatively small, protected area. The local wildlife stays at a safe distance from the geysers of Lake Bogoria as the steaming hot springs can prove fatal for the flamingos and other water birds that live there. Nevertheless, quite often the bones of dead animals can be seen close to the geysers as some venture too close and are killed by the hot steam. At an altitude of nearly six thousand metres, Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain on the African continent. For most of the time its summit is covered by a dense ring of cloud that gives the mountain an air of mystique. There are few other places on earth that offer the huge variety of nature as does the legendary east of the African continent. A magical destination and a wild natural paradise that is second to none!

Exploring Eden in Patagonia: Diving In
The CauseCentric team and founder Céline Cousteau travel to Melimoyu Bay in Chile capturing the story of this diverse ecosystem and the organization protecting it. In this remote part of Chilean Patagonia, the Melimoyu Ecosystem Research Institute (MERI) works tirelessly to explore and preserve the elements that make this reserve so special. This incredible, unique region boasts a wild and amazing diversity of flora and fauna. In Part 2 of this two part series, we explore the scope of the land from the glacier to the bay and look for the largest animal on the planet. We have the incredible opportunity to fly to the glacier and be the first to dive in the bay.

The main target of the day is the beautiful and sought-after Diademed Sandpiper-Plover. For that, we will drive directly to the El Yeso area, just doing a few selected stops, especially for the endemic Crag Chilia and Moustached Turca.
