Alihuén

A new private protected area was created in the Los Lagos Region. Thanks to the signing of a Derecho Real de Conservación agreement, more than 70 hectares will be protected forever on the Big Island of Chiloé, which are part of the Chepu Wetlands Nature Sanctuary. This conservation initiative called Alihuén, is a project of ecological restoration, sociocultural connectivity, organic agriculture and inclusive ecotourism. Thanks to the commitment and work of the family behind Alihuén and the more than 200 volunteers they receive every year, more than 40 thousand native trees have been planted! Tierra Austral will continue to support this valuable project, joining forces to meet its goals of reconnecting forests. We invite you to learn about the www.alihuen.org initiative and learn from its history.
