birding challenge

"araucania's great 4"

Embark on a unique birding adventure in the heart of Araucanía, where nature, excitement, and discovery come together. This experience invites you to explore diverse ecosystems in search of four of the region’s most iconic birds, combining hiking and a scenic river float in one or two unforgettable days.

Our challenge is to find and observe the elusive Torrent Duck (Cortacorriente), the impressive Magellanic Woodpecker, the charismatic Chucao, and the vibrant Kingfisher. Guided by a knowledgeable bilingual expert, you’ll learn about their habitats, behaviors, and the rich biodiversity that makes this region so special.

As part of the experience, each species you successfully spot earns you a beautifully designed magnet featuring that bird. It’s a fun and rewarding way to track your progress while creating a meaningful connection with each encounter in the wild.

Complete the challenge by spotting all four species, and you’ll receive a special commemorative bottle showcasing “The Great 4” — a unique keepsake to remember your adventure in Araucanía’s wild landscapes.
