Estar en la reserva fue una experiencia increíble. Su bosque es hermoso y la fauna que lo habita es espectacular; tuve la suerte de ver muchísimos pudúes. Las labores de housekeeping, recepción y mantener encendido el fuego de la caldera fueron sencillas. Pero lo más especial fue su gente: gracias a David, Thomka, Pancho, Laura, Coni, Gloria, Isabel, Cami y a todos quienes conocí. Me hicieron sentir siempre como en casa. Me llevo al parque y a su equipo en el corazón, junto con recuerdos que jamás olvidaré. Nunca superaré la reserva y espero volver algún día. ❤️🌿

Fue una experiencia increíble! El proyecto del parque es muy potente, es un lugar hermoso. El voluntariado fue una gran experiencia, las tareas varían según lo que se necesite pero principalmente necesitan ayuda de housekeeping, recepción y en el salón del restorán. Todos fueron muy amables y abiertos, me ayudaron a aprender y a tener un ambiente muy grato. Los turnos eran de 6 horas al día, iba rotando entre AM y PM, en mi tiempo libre aproveché de conocer el parque y disfrutar de las instalaciones. Lo recomiendo muchísimo si te gusta la naturaleza y quieres desconectar.

Es un lugar impresionante, estar inserto en un parque nacional del sur de Chile, rodeado de flora y fauna nativa no tiene precio! Las tareas son fáciles, David el anfitrión está my abierto a propuestas, flexibilidad en el horario y mucha preocupación. 100% recomendado!

Una experiencia totalmente maravillosa y enriquecedora. Viví tres semanas en la reserva en plena naturaleza, aprendí mucho sobre la biodiversidad del lugar y camine por bellisimos senderos del parque. Agradecer todo el aprendizaje y la hospitalidad de los Agus. Me dieron mucha confianza desde el principio y se preocuparon mucho por mi bienestar y comodidad en estos días. Gran parte de esta buena experiencia es gracias a ellos. Me llevo unos lindos amigos de esta isla llena de una energía muy especial. Ojalá volvernos a encontrar en el camino. 100% recomendable! 🥰🥰

Definitivamente el parque es increíble si les interesa estar inmersos en la naturaleza. El equipo es muy amable y se preocupan mucho por uno. Creo que es importante considerar que la experiencia en el lodge y en portería son muy distintas, consulten bien cuando se postulen. Las condiciones de vivienda pueden ser muy variantes entonces pregunten qué les pueden ofrecer en ese momento. Adicionalmente es importante consultar si hay vivienda disponible para los días de descanso, constantemente están haciendo cambios y es importante que aseguren que van a tener todo lo que les « ofrecen ».
