Known as the enchanted lake, the Laguna de Brealitos Lake is 12 kilometres away from Seclantás, in the village of Brealitos, a hamlet capriciously developing alongside the homonymous river.

Travellers reaching this area will wonder before the abrupt mountains bordering the lagoon, 300 meters above the village, and will find not only an impacting scenery reflected on the water, but a paradise for fishing atherine as well.

The lake belongs to the Luracatao ranch, which at the beginning of the Spanish colonization was a royal gift to the conquerors.

There are two ways of getting there and the majesty of the rocks makes both of the entrances imposing.

After driving for about 10 kilometres through a sinuous and steeped road, travellers reach a mountain pass where a roadblock marks the entrance to the ranch. There, they will experience some sensations bordering between awe and adrenaline flow, while following the winding road descending to it with the eyes, for it can be appreciated from up there resting on the other side of the pass.

The lake can also be accessed by walking a path ascending through the craggy rocks. It can be reached within an hour while slowly climbing; when arriving at the edge, the heart rejoices with the landscape; on one side rests the lake mounted on huge rocks, and on the other the Brealitos village.

Travellers can fish at the lagoon with a permit, and it is not hard to find a local telling anecdotes about the area. They say that sometimes they have seen the mother of all fishes, coming out of the water as a mermaid, when too many fishes are captured… that the lake is an ocean eye… that nobody knows how deep it is…

Visitors can walk all around it and take good pictures during the afternoon hours, watch the chumucos (a duck variety) between the reeds, walk towards the source of the river supplying the lake with water, climb some smaller hills to get a more formidable view, or perhaps prepare a delicious asado spit roast beef. bR>
