Fundo Encantado

Located in the commune of Futaleufú, Los Lagos region, Fundo Encantado has an area of 118.36 hectares adjacent to the Futaleufú National Reserve, representing an opportunity for the restoration of elements of the ecosystem that have been historically damaged.

Thus, the presence of species in conservation category such as the Cordillera Cypress (Austrocedrus chilensis) and fauna as the puma (Puma concolor), güiña (Leopardus guigna) and the huemul (Hippocamelus bisulcus), stands out.

With the establishment of a Derecho Real de Conservación agreement on 70 hectares of the property, ecosystems of high ecological value and critical habitats on the banks of the Futaleufú River will be protected in perpetuity, allowing sustainable land uses.

Tierra Austral’s private lands conservation efforts in Chile are supported by the Weeden Foundation, which has also provided  critical assistance to our organization since its inception in 2012. Our DRC projects in Patagonia are also part of a joint initiative with the PEW Charitable Trusts.
