Hike Out to Bosques de Arrayanes

These guys know something about a great forest walk. You can hike out 12 km then return by boat. It looked almost flat but in the first 3 km you actually walk the equivalent of 100 flights of stairs. Another beautiful weather day.

The Arrayanes are related to crepe myrtle and at the end of the peninsula there is something like the world's largest concentration of these trees. Turns out the land was privately owned in the past, and they selectively cut down other trees, allowing this large grove to thrive.
