Lakes & Volcanoes of Southern Chile - 5D/4N
A chain of lakes, forests, meadows and snow-covered volcanoes between the Bio-Bio river and the town of Puerto Montt gives shape to one of the most beautiful landscapes in the country of Chile. Puerto Montt was settled by German colonists in the mid-19th century, and is one of Chile’s most important cities. It features middle-European architecure, with shingles, high-pitched roofs and ornate balconies. The redwood cathedral on the city’s plaza is the city’s oldest building, dating from 1856.
