Parque Nacional Huerquehue

As you may have guessed by the title of this entry we did not go up the Volcano today. Having arisen early to go to the Volcano the weather, and forcast, were looking dodgy so no climbing today. Back to bed for a quick snooze then we got up and headed off to the national park to go for a wander with Mel and Will. (An English couple just returning from NZ after a couple of years and just setting out for 6 months in S.A. and central A.)

As we were rather late in setting off we did not have much time in Huerquehue but enough to walk round a bit of Lago Tinquilco and up towards the three lakes above. The views and waterfalls in the park are simply stunning, a bit like Perthshire with a dusting of snow all over it.
