Taking a shower in middle of the wilderness is difficult unless you carry along special showering gear. But what about a refreshing river bath? Avoid stagnated water, particularly during summer months, as they are germ infested. On the other hand, most rivers in Chile are clean and allow for easy swimming, beware of strong currents however.
If you have an open wound, avoid swimming. In any case, Chile is free from bilharzias.
