In the vast, untamed landscapes of Chilean Patagonia, Leona Amarga offers a unique experience of deep connection with wildlife. The ranch is located in one of the areas with the highest presence of wild pumas in the entire region. Here, there are no collars or electronic trackers: each sighting is authentic, the fruit of ancestral knowledge and the keen perception of expert guides and trackers.
With a 97% success rate, daily outings—of up to 7 hours—bring you up close and personal with this enigmatic predator in a respectful and safe manner. A minimum of three nights is recommended to maximize observation opportunities in diverse settings and landscapes.
