Today, you will arrive in Santiago de Chile, where you will connect with an onward flight to Puerto Montt in the heart of the Chilean Lake District. A driver will take you to Puerto Varas, which has stunning views of the Osorno Volcano.
-
Free day to relax after your long-haul flights. You may want to take a short excursion to the volcano or explore Puerto Varas. There is a range of options here, from white-water rafting to gentle walking tours, and we can get them all booked in advance for you.
-
Continuing your journey south, you will fly to the small town of Balmaceda. A driver will be there to take you on the long but stunning five-hour drive to your hotel on the shores of Lago General Carrera.
-
This region is one of the least explored in Chile and offers some amazing opportunities. With your guide, you could choose to visit the famous Marble Caves, take a boat onto the beautiful Lake, try your hand at fly-fishing on the Baker River or horse ride in some untouched corners of Patagonia (some of these may incur an extra cost).
-
There are further options available at Hacienda Tres Lagos including a canopy zip-line and treks to glaciers. It really is hard to think of a region that offers more opportunities in such close proximity.
-
Enjoy your last day exploring Aysén. Depending on the time of year (and you can travel at almost any time) the options will vary, but it will always be stunning!
-
Leaving the shores of Lago General Carrera you will return to Balmaceda for the flight to Santiago and your onward journey.
