Lot 14 shares with Lot 13 the morphology typical of this central strip. Its 5,000 m² surface is organized into an upper flat area at the western access, equivalent to half of the property, followed by a more pronounced slope that connects to the lower flat area next to the Futaleufú River. Its riverside is distinguished by a rocky shoreline that combines semi-flat surfaces and low rock formations among the vegetation. This feature reinforces the scenic identity of the lot, though it is not suitable for swimming due to the river’s strong current. The most favorable area for construction is the upper section, located at the rear access. The flora includes coihue trees and native shrubs, while seven-colored tanagers and chucaos are part of its fauna.

The “Terminator” section of the Futaleufú River is one of its longest and most technical rapids, recognized worldwide for its intensity. Located just a few kilometers from town, it runs through a valley framed by Andean mountains and native forests, where the flow —fed by mountain lakes and seasonal snowmelt— reaches its full power. Its name dates back to the first rafting expeditions in the 1980s, when paddlers facing its magnitude would simply exclaim: “Terminated!”. Since then, the Terminator has become both a natural and sporting landmark, helping to establish Futaleufú as an international destination for whitewater adventure.
How to get to Futaleufú?
Futaleufú can be reached from both Chile and Argentina through various routes.
From abroad, the most direct option is via Santiago, Chile, followed by a domestic flight to Puerto Montt. From there, travelers can reach Chaitén either by air —with services operated by Pewén and Aerocord— or via an overnight maritime barge run by Naviera Austral. The final stretch to Futaleufú is completed by road from Chaitén.
From Argentina, access is possible through flights from Buenos Aires to either Bariloche or Esquel, with Esquel being the closest city to the border crossing that leads directly to Futaleufú.
