Project initiators
The fathers and funders of Chakana are Daniel Kraus and Franz Schubert. Daniel, tourism entrepreneur from Germany, has discovered his love for the Chilean highlands during one of his summit climbs in the Chilean Andes. Franz, a native Austrian, lives in Chile since 1993 and has commited himself to promote the tourism in Chile. A number of projects have been initiated and completed by Franz over the past years. As tourism and mountain lovers the two of them build with Chakana a bridge between Chilean and international tourism at 3,500 meters altitude.
