Lenga Wood Craft Workshop

The lenga beech is the iconic tree of Patagonia, and working with its beautiful reddish wood is an art form passed down through generations. In this hands-on workshop, you'll spend an afternoon with a master craftsman who has dedicated his life to this traditional skill. After learning about the lenga tree's importance to the region's ecology and culture, you'll create your own piece - a serving board, spoon, or small bowl - using traditional hand tools and techniques. Your finished piece, shaped by your own hands from Patagonian wood, makes the most meaningful souvenir imaginable.
