Just 3 km from Caleta Tortel, this island has been declared a historical monument. It is part of the fjords and channels linking the Northern and Southern Ice Fields, where early settlers arrived to exploit the cypress wood from Las Guaitecas.


On the island, you will see 33 wooden crosses, remains of the graves of workers from the Baker Exploitation Company in 1906. Historians estimate around 120 people died here, although the reasons remain uncertain, inspiring many theories.


You will walk along wooden pathways through the native forest, hearing stories and legends about this place, while enjoying panoramic views of the surrounding archipelago.


We will return to Caleta Tortel after a tour that combines history, nature, and the enduring mystery of the Isla de los Muertos.

Estoy totalmente agradecido con la organización de Nómades, ya que hicieron una excepción a pesar de que era una persona sola para hacer el tour en kayak y finalmente se realizó satisfactoriamente.
