COCHAMO VALLEY

Cochamó valley (CHILE)
2023- present

Promoting sustainable tourism and environmental protection in the Cochamó Valley (Chilean Patagonia).

The Cochamó Valley is a natural paradise rich in biodiversity, rivers, forests and  mountains. This natural area is strongly affected by mass tourism and many companies are progressing with large-scale projects such as hydroelectric dams.

PROJECT AIMS

Together with our partner Friends of Cochamó and local communities we are working to restore trails, thereby promoting sustainable tourism and protecting this territory against extractive projects.

The final goal of the project is to secure the Nature Sanctuary Status — a powerful conservation designation in Chile — in the entire area of the Cochamó valley.
