    Hiking

    This retreat is located in an incredibly gorgeous area. Photos are not enough to describe the beauty of the place, you must come in person if you can. It is located near two lakes, Chiotas and Brocan. The place is very popular and there are two paths to reach it, one steeper and one less, both very well maintained and signposted.

    Nice hut but very busy. The location between the two lakes is pretty spectacular.
