parque oncol

The only option to get there was either to rent a car or pony up the 15000 chilean pesos per person which is what we did. I liked the park and would have loved try the 'canopy' as that's supposed to be great but didn't want to spend the extra. The hiking trails were well laid out but there didn't seem to be a lot of them. We didn't have a car so we were limited to where the 15000 per person minibus dropped us off. The bathrooms were clean and the coffee shop as well was good. Instant coffee - yes. But I'm getting used to it.

A great day for a family outing with easy trails, a great canopy line (for additional cost) with 4 super high and long line, and also good camping sites to stay or have a picnic. Clean bathrooms available as well as basic coffee shop. Would have appreciated that the guides were more expressive and passionate about the place, telling us whta type of vegetarion, birds etc we saw as we did the canopy.

This is not your average hiking park. First the drive to it is over gravel roads and although the park is close to Valdivia will take an hour plus to arrive as you have to go quite slowly. Park entrance fees are 3,000 pesos per person.Once you arrive the park doesn't have traditional hiking trails. You drive from trail to trail, stopping and parking and then hiking very short 20 min loops. Then you're off to do the next loop or just to stop for a picture spot.At the end of the drive/hike loop you finally get to a traditional hiking trail which is about an hour and a half return. Very easy climb (not much in the way of altitude gain from where you park). Filled with kids. The views at the top are beautiful and worth the trip but if you're seeking a 4-5 hour hike in solitude this isn't the place for you.

Nice place to visit a nice glimpse of Valdivia and Pacific ocean from a single shot. trekking path was excellent.

This is a great wilderness area of forest with birdlife and ferns. There is a small camp site and one or two lookout towers from which you can see the city of Valdivia on its inlet to the south, the Pacific Ocean to the west and the volcanos of Argentina to the east including beautiful Volcan Lanin.If you are camping it is well worth an overnight stay

Reserve a day, at least, for the virgin forest in the rainy zone of Chile. Plenty of birds, smaragde-green hummingbirds... climb to the outlook to the Ocean, and if you dare passing the night there, you may see a wonderful sunset in direction Australia.

We had half a day spare in Valdivia and decided to go to Parque Oncol. A good place and a great way to spend the time. Perfect if you're short of time too. You drive through and there are lots of signposted places to park up and go for short walks. Very peaceful and some stunning views. If we'd had more time it would have been great to do some of the longer walks or even the canopy zip wire.

Es un lugar agradable que conserva la selva valdiviana muy cerca valdivia. Si te gusta el ciclismo de montaña el camino no es complicado eso si debes pensar en pendiente. El lugar posee senderos, buenos caminos y se puede hacer canopy.

Luego de una larga trepada para llegar al refugio del guardaparque, nos encontramos que podíamos ingresar al mismo, previo pago de canon. Continuando el camino se nos informó que nos encontraríamos con un buffet y mas adelante con un Restaurante. Todo Cerrado, baños abiertos al público cerrados y nadie supo darnos una explicación.Sólo vale la pena para ver la flora y fauna del lugar.

El lugar es muy bonito, sobretodo para quienes disfrutan del treking. Además el canopi es bastante entretenido... La atención la encontré mas o menos, sobretodo en el casino para poder comer algo, asi que recomiendo que lleven sus propias colaciones.

Un buen lugar para realizar trekking, la flora y la fauna se complementan de una manera espectacular. Facilmente se puede llegar a la cima a buen paso que son unos 700 m.s.n.m.

Llegamos al parque un dia de fuerte llovizna, el camino de tierra pero en buen estado, a medio dia dia despejo y fue un gran dia para recorrer, el parque esta bien cuidado, hay una cafeteria que vende sandwiich en pana amasado ahi mismo..!!!, hicimos la senda a la cumbre de Oncol, lamentablemente estuvo con niebla ...pero el recorrido en canopy es sublime....casi 1.000 mts en 4 estaciones por un bosque....muy recomendable..!!!

El tour comienza a las 11am desde la costanera, donde se compra y reserva el viaje (pasado el mercado fluvial hacia el sur). Un bus llega al mismo parque, ofrece canopy y un trekking opcional que llega a la cima del sendero oncol de donde se observa la depresión intermedia chilena (20mil pesos, unos 35 dólares aprox.)No deben dejar cosas en el bus, aunque se los recomienden, puesto que a un turista extranjero le robaron su maletín con dinero.

La atención es muy cercana, los paisajes posibles por ver son espectaculares, los senderos son extensos pero subibles sin tener un buen estado físico, el kanopy una experiencia única. Lo ideal para conocer la flora y fauna Valdiviana, en lo más intimo de su selva.

Un lugar maravilloso para caminar, hacer canopy con un paisaje impresionante se puede caminar por largos senderos hasta llegar a la cumbre
