Camping Relmu Lafquen
/LofWiritray/

The trailhead is at the Relmu Lafquen campground, belonging to the Mapuche community Lofwiritray, there is a 3 km. dirt road access from route 40. If you park in the premises there is a fee.

On the trail soon you will need to cross the Fresco creek, which at the end of spring and early summer has a lot of water. There may be a small bridge or not, if so you need to wade through. Later in the season it is easy to cross and the lake level goes down and you can walk along the beach for the first part.

The trail is well marked with red dots, arriving first at Playa Leones, 4 km., then continues up to Llum lagoon.

You can continue up to the Isla Corazon lookout, but the trails as of the Llum lagoon becomes pretty closed due to vegetation and lack of maintenance with some very steep sections. Watch for markings as it has little use and easy to lose track. Follow the same trail back down.

Camping at Llum lagoon is not allowed. If you wish to continue to Los Césares the camping area is down on the Mascardi lake after contouring round a fair bit. The area is called “Machete” and has no services, fires are not allowed.
