Cochamó Valley Landscape Scenes and Plants

December 2004

The Cochamó Valley is a glacially carved deep valley in the Andes Mountains in the Lake District of Chile.   The valley trends east-west, and rivals Yosemite Valley of California in its ruggedness and granite domes and cliffs.   The vegetation consists of temperate rainforest.   There are no roads into the valley, only old eroded trails and a few wilderness huts and a private rustic lodge.   Waterfalls abound.
