Lican Ray, Chile

Our 2007 GMSA Missionary Conference was held in Lican Ray. Lican Ray is a breathtaking little town in the southern lakes region of Chile. During the summer months, many Chileans travel down to this place to swim in the cool mountain fed Lake Calafquen. The area is great for the missionaries to relax for a week and be encouraged by God's creation and God's revelation (preaching of God's Word).

Possibly my favorite picture (above) of Lican. The town is on the north end of the lake and has a peninsula coming into the lake. The white volcano you see in the picture is actually across the border in Argentina.


These two men are standing on the peninsula and are actually pointing to where the camp property is located (across the lake just past the clump of tree on the shore).


The lake is busy with water craft. Notice how clear the water is by the big rock.


Sunrise on the lake is a beautiful sight (if you can get yourself out of bed).

Using the map below (click for larger view), can you locate Lican Ray and Lago Calafquen?


Map Hints:
-Lican is SE of the city of Temuco.
-Lican is E of the main "red" highway 5.
-Lican is located just above the center of the map.
