Puyuhuapi, wilderness and hot springs hotel in Patagonia
Puyuhapi, a family-run enterprise located in the Patagonia wilderness has a hotel situated on the Ventisquero Sound, accessible only by sea with the protected shore of Dorita Bay, next to three natural hot-springs. This is probably one of the most beautiful sites for a hot spring, or termas, in the world. Built of the wood of the surrounding forests by local craftsmen almost three decades ago, the hotel offers guests the creature comforts of a first-class hotel amidst the spectacular wilderness wildness of Patagonia. The structure itself was designed to harmoniously combine with the surroundings so that its very aesthetic would help offer the traveller a unique experience south of silence.

Puyuhuapi attracts people needing to unwind, relaxing in the termas, or hot springs, leaving the hustle and bustle of their regular lives for a more natural tranquility. Others come to explore. From the hotel there are many excursions for you to enjoy our wilderness safely. You can hike on trails through the surrounding temperate rain forest, visit Quelat National Park and a spectacular hanging glacier, kayak through a myriad of interior passage channels and islands, fish, observe and photograph wildlife, or, just relax and soak up the soothing waters of the hot-springs that gave the hotel its name.

Fly fishing in this area is famous and some guests come to Puyuhuapi strictly for that. Professional guides organise the fly-fishing and operate on an exclusive "catch and release" basis. There are many ideal locations on surrounding rivers excellent for Brown and Rainbow Trout. Coho Salmon run toward the end of the summer which in the southern hemisphere occurs in early March.
