While browsing the internet, you come across all kind of useless crap. Once in a blue moon you stumble upon a real gem and, like me, you decide you want everyone to know about it.

Side note: All images (a few that I will put on) come from the official website of the Huilo huilo biological reserve website http://www.huilohuilo.com .
You might be thinking: "is that woman crazy, holding a child over some rope on a wooden suspended bridge?" Or you might be thinking: "Is that someone's house? And why is there a fountain on top of it?"
In the end, you might just be thinking: "That's crazy!"
While it is a little "original", what we see on the photo is actually a hotel called Magic mountain lodge. It sits in a biological reserve in the middle of the Patagonian Andes, in the south of Chile. I will not give you a tourist guide version of the reserve - you can read up about it on the website.
I will say however that I am amazed.
The hotel up on the photo is supposed to portrait a live volcano with water coming down it instead of burning lava. Nice. There are photos on the website of the inside of the hotel and the views from it, in season and during winter.
The other significant building in this reserve is the Baobab Hotel & Spa.
And yeah it has a heated swimming pool and all the amenities that come with it.
What's fascinating is that all the buildings seem to be made out of the wood from the forests and in their natural state, just polished for our use. Just look at the guard rails, they are not straight but naturally shaped.
From the photos it looks cosy!
When would you ever think that something like this might exist? And in Chile!
Whatever you are thinking, I know that I just added this place to my list of places to visit.
