This is an indigenous forest whose trees are between 400 and 500 years old. Mañio, Coigue, Lenga, Canelo, which have a diameter between 80 cm and 1.5 meters, are internationally known trees with valuable wood.
CONAF, the Chilean government organization responsible for controlling deforestation in native forests, approved the felling of 15.4 hectares, 50 trees per hectare, for a total of 750 trees.
This means a potential income of around 300,000 euros from marketing the wood in Chile.
Abroad, this amount is three to five times higher.
The development of tourism in the Aysen - Chilean Patagonia region has enormous income potential.
The land is bordered by the Engaño River, which flows into Lago General Carrera.
