AndBeyond Vira Vira
Call of the wild
Down by the river
Immersed in nature, Vira Vira in Pucón faces the forests and mountains of Chile’s Lake District. Rooms, decorated in earth tones and warm woods, face snowy peaks through floor-to-ceiling windows. Modern-day explorers can work with the staff’s team of guides to plan all-inclusive excursions to hike, ride, kayak and trek the terrain. Vira Vira’s commitment to its surroundings includes inventive farm-to-table cuisine at the hotel restaurant, which prepares produce sourced from the gardens, and cheese made using milk from the adjacent farm. Here, nature's bounty overflows.
Planes
The hotel is an hour’s drive from La Araucanía International Airport, also known as Temuco Airport, in Freire. The airport offers connections to Santiago, a 60-minute flight away.
Automobiles
The hotel is a winding nine-hour drive straight from Santiago, though there are plenty of scenic stops along the way. Drivers can take advantage of free on-site and valet parking.
Worth Getting Out of Bed For
Whether you appreciate the surrounds of the hotel for the bucolic views or their promise of adventure, the hectares of green are enticing enough to occupy any guest. The hotel staff harvest and mill wheat from the gardens for home-made bread, and prepare cheese using milk from the owners’ herd of dairy cows. Marvel at the garden-to-table process or dive in with cooking classes for insider intel on how best to utilise some of the local ingredients. The hotel is ideal for outdoor adventurers. Fly-fish on the Liucura River from the hotel grounds, or head upstream for rafting or sailing. Active and dormant volcanoes dot the area, and are open for hikers, including a hike to the summit of the steaming Volcano Villarrica. That same volcanic action means therapeutic hot springs throughout the area, which will help soothe tender muscles if you’ve overdone the adventure.
