Sustainability

Carbon footprint

What can we do?

• Enjoy discovering Futrono on foot or on bike. There are many attractions that do not require transportation by car, thus helping reduce CO2 emissions.
• In other cases, public transport is an economic and more eco-friendly alternative.
• Trips to the lake are much more enjoyable by foot.
• For the avid fishermen (or beginners), Cabañas Pewma has a Katarraf (inflatable fishing boat) to mitigate carbon footprint and reduce noise pollution to the lakes and rivers natural flora and fauna.
