Originally a place for friends to stay while they enjoyed the hunting and fishing resources of the Hulio Hulio reserve, the Magic Mountain Hotel in Chile is the name is from a favorite book of the owners. The story describes a mountain that has magical powers and grants wishes – The Magic Mountain. With a waterfall cascading from the pinnacle of the roof, the lodge is indeed a special place. As you’d expect from staying somewhere remote, your senses become tuned to the vibrant ecosystem of the forest. Condors and eagles in the air, pumas on the ground.
The water in these places has great purity, and from the idea, of showing the energy and life of this element, born the project of a mountain, from which comes the life and contains the magic of the forest, finding in each of its details, the beings and elements that are unique and irreplaceable, what came to life the native forests. It is a lodge built with quality material by craftsmen of surrounding communities and Puerto Fuy Neltume, small wood-based mountain villages.
There’s a reading room, restaurant, bar, laundry, saunt and tubs in ancient trunks with naturally heated water. Unusual, decadent, sustainable and absolutely beautiful admist natural surroundings in the glory of Chile’s mountains.
