This region is one of the least explored in Chile and offers some amazing opportunities. With your guide, you could choose to visit the famous Marble Caves, take a boat onto the beautiful Lake, try your hand at fly-fishing on the Baker River or horse ride in some untouched corners of Patagonia (some of these may incur an extra cost).

There are further options available at Hacienda Tres Lagos including a canopy zip-line and treks to glaciers. It really is hard to think of a region that offers more opportunities in such close proximity.
