Madre de Dios, the Lost Island
Patagonia, situated in the southern part of South America, is a largely unexplored wilderness, battered by the elements. After famous navigators such as Ferdinand Magellan, Louis de Bougainville and naval officer Robert Fitzroy, it is now the turn of speleologists, geographers, geologists, botanists, archaeologists, biologists and filmmakers from the Centre Terre Association to explore this hostile yet fascinating natural environment. The expedition, christened “Ultima Patagonia”, is based in the northern part of Madre de Dios Island in the south of Chile.
