Patagonia Azul is a paradise for marine and coastal birdwatchers. Portal Isla Leones offers long coastal trails with breathtaking views along different beaches and coves. From the viewpoints, you can spot whale spouts, giant petrels and even albatrosses flying.
The network of hiking trails is designed along the most spectacular spots and offers a wide variety of options. Some trails are unmarked, and they will take you to different viewpoints, such as Mirador 360º (40 min) or Mirador de la Cueva del Puma (20 min), which are of easy-medium difficulty for those who want to admire unique landscapes.
Another longer trail is Cañadón de la Costa, which is 8 km long and can be covered in half a day. It reaches a gorge and a cutwater. This trail has a medium-high difficulty level.

This experience is for adventurers who want to explore the traces of a former cattle ranch. Through hills and downhills, viewpoints, and pebble beaches, you will discover the Patagonian coasts in a unique way.

We have eight electric bikes to ride along the Portal together with the guide. The network of trails has different lengths and difficulties depending on the land, and it is designed to take you to the most spectacular viewpoints of the park. You can choose to pedal and do some exercise, or you can enjoy the sunlight while crossing the park admiring the views.

During your stay you will rediscover a marine Patagonia full of biodiversity. There is an extraordinary variety of seabirds and shorebirds in their natural habitat, as well as marine and terrestrial fauna moving on the beat of nature. Majestic petrels gliding over the waves and fascinating groups of cormorants will welcome you to a different kind of marine Patagonia. Parque Patagonia Azul is an exclusive paradise for bird and wildlife lovers.

In the intertidal zone in front of the glamping, where we recommend snorkeling, you will find marine animals of all kinds. In the calm waters of Bahía Arredondo Bay, you will be able to observe impressive kelp forests. On the pebble beaches on the way to Cueva del Puma you will find starfish, crabs and colorful anemones. In all cases, snorkeling is done from the shore, masks are provided at Glamping Isla Leones and the use of life jackets is mandatory.

The boat trip to Isla Leones is the culminating point of Patagonia Azul: passing through dazzling bays and coves, witnessing an incredible variety of wildlife on the islands, spotting whales, dolphins and common bottlenose dolphins accompanied by seabirds flying just above the sea. After visiting the legendary lighthouse in Isla Leones and enjoying a picnic on the beach, the tour continues to an impressive geological feature called "Caleta Hornos". This mystical place has offered refuge to sailors and expeditionaries for hundreds of years.
