U2 – Where The Streets Have No Name (Official Music Video)
Por Marcel Albano
Hace un tiempo, el director de este medio me sugirió hacer algunas recomendaciones a nuestros lectores sobre el trekking, actividad que se ha popularizado después de la cuarentena y ha llevado a muchas personas a explorar fuera de la ciudad. Sin embargo, la presencia humana en los ecosistemas naturales ha tenido un impacto negativo en la región, con basurales en medio de la naturaleza que han crecido debido al mal uso y abuso de los senderos y territorios naturales por parte de visitantes energúmenos e inescrupulosos. Por ejemplo, ¿qué ha pasado con la población de loros Tricahue en el trayecto al Puma Lodge de Chacayes? Ese es otro ejemplo de impacto negativo y es por estos hechos que no me gusta la idea de promover a las y los neófitos adentrarse en la naturaleza, sin la intención de aprender.
A pesar de los esfuerzos de voluntarios y organizaciones ambientales para mejorar rutas y educar a la población sobre la importancia de la conciencia ecológica, la presencia de basura en algunos sectores es muestra de nuestra lamentable, repetitiva y subdesarrollada cultura en educación ambiental. Todo esto pensaba, hasta que alguien mejoró esa perspectiva y comprendí el rol del senderismo o trekking en la educación pública.
Dicho esto, si quieres realizar un trekking desafiante y poner a prueba la mente, el cuerpo y el espíritu, recomiendo practicar en el cerro Poqui, recorrido que realicé junto a dos amigos expertos en la materia: Rodrigo Castro, ex compañero del INBA, y Victor Cabezas, senderistas de la región metropolitana.
El Santuario de la naturaleza
Sin lugar a dudas, debe ser uno de los lugares más bellos de la región dada su alta biodiversidad y equilibrio ecológico. Emplazado entre las comunas de Doñihue y Coltauco, el cerro Poqui tiene una altura aproximada de 1.800 metros y la ruta que conduce al acceso tiene una dificultad media-alta de 10 hrs aproximadas de travesía. Cuando se ha avanzado cerca de 2 horas en la subida, se puede apreciar la cascada, parada obligada pero que debe ser breve para llegar a la cumbre.
Tiene una flora estimada en 2.500 especies de las cuales el 50% son endémicas y el 25% exclusivas de la zona central: ahí destacan arrayanes, canelos, pinos, el roble hualo, chaguales, roble pellín, incluso existen los digueñes típicos del bosque sureño. Posee diversos pisos ecológicos en donde se puede apreciar el increíble microuniverso de hongos, musgos, líquenes, setas y especies de cactus conforme se avanza de un piso ecológico a otro.
La formación geológica alberga una rica fauna conformada por más de 70 especies donde destacan el cóndor, águila, halcón, zorro culpeo, el güíña, el quique, el tucuquere entre otros. Además, existen especies endémicas como el sapo de pecho espinoso de Cantillana o el lagarto gruñidor de Valeria descubiertas el 2015 y que, por las características de emplazamiento del lugar, se encuentran en peligro de extinción. No existen en otro lugar del mundo.
Llegando al último piso ecológico, descubrirás una extensa meseta donde también se encuentra un lugar de peregrinación religiosa ligada al culto de la Virgen de Lourdes. Desde ese punto, se divisan distintas zonas: aquí la elección de los caminos se debe realizar con sabiduría para optimizar el tiempo de caminata hasta su cumbre final que es coronada con hermosas formaciones rocosas y vetas de cuarzo a ras de piso. La vista en 360°, majestuosa e imponente, recompensa el esfuerzo de atravesar por este laberinto enigmático de la naturaleza.
Cuestiones básicas de senderismo de 10 a 12 horas
El senderismo o trekking es una experiencia que se hace en compañía. Hacerlo solo requiere muchísimo entrenamiento y aun cuando algunos lo practicamos en solitario, recomendamos por razones obvias de seguridad, no hacerlo. Tres personas como mínimo es la cantidad adecuada puesto que en caso de accidente, un senderista puede ir por ayuda mientras otro sostiene cuidados y auxilios básicos al herido, luxado o agotado en extremo.
Para planificar tu ruta de senderismo, es importante que consultes mapas y guías especializados, verificar las condiciones del terreno y el clima previamente. Además, te recomendamos que siempre avises a alguien sobre tu ruta y hora de llegada estimada, para que estén al tanto de tu paradero y puedan alertar a las autoridades si no regresas. Conservar la batería de tu aparato de celular es más importante que las selfies y fotos del lugar.
La mejor hora para iniciar la caminata en esta época del año es a las 06:30 am preferiblemente en la base del sendero. El amanecer en medio del bosque es una experiencia inolvidable que permitirá reconectar contigo mismo en base al reciclaje de la actividad psíquica automática producida por la vida urbana y los sistemas que anulan el tiempo presente. Sin embargo, para que la experiencia sea buena, la preparación y la prevención son cruciales. Siendo un deporte como tal, es necesario tener una atención especial a la relación entre la voluntad, el estado físico, la actividad psíquica y la alimentación. Recomendamos poner en la mochila comida suficiente, frutas, embelecos saludables, agua (2 a 3 litros mínimo), calcetines adicionales, ropa cómoda, guantes de seguridad y calzado adecuado. La mayoría de los excursionistas usan bastoneras y otros, los de la vieja escuela, báculos como apoyo.
En este lugar, el horario límite de ascenso es hasta las 14:00 horas. Luego debes, sí o sí, regresar desde donde estés para evitar perderte en el frondoso y húmedo bosque a causa de la oscuridad o el cansancio y ser víctima del frío. Por último, te recordamos la importancia de respetar las normas de conservación del medio ambiente y de no dejar basura en la ruta. De esta manera, ayudarás a mantener estos lugares maravillosos y únicos para futuras generaciones.
