Southern Chile

Experience a region where the Andes begin their descent into the Patagonian coast and temperate rainforests reach the shores of spectacular lakes.

Southern Chile is a magnificent region renowned for its pristine waterways, old-growth forests and captivating lakeside communities. Stretching from the Bío Bío River in the north to the Chacao Channel and majestic Chilean Patagonia to the south, Southern Chile is a region of rugged beauty and stunning shores. Go rafting, kayaking or boating on the region’s lakes and rivers and enjoy a panorama of volcanoes, glaciers, archipelagos and primeval Valdivian forests.

The region’s beautiful lakes and rivers are fed by snowmelt and precipitation in the Andes, and flow out into the Pacific Ocean in hundreds of snaking valleys. Volcanic rocks and geological formations create spectacular white-water rapids and waterfalls along the way. Visit the Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park to see the Petrohué Falls. Nearby Lake Todos los Santos is a breathtaking lake surrounded by Valdivian temperate rainforest.

Admire the pretty Calle-Calle River from Valdivia or experience the stunning beaches of Villarrica Lake from Pucón. Pucón and Puerto Varas are hotspots for adventure, with plenty of options for hiking, rafting, kayaking and canyoning. Go horseback riding through the foothills or soak your muscles in one of the steaming thermal springs. In summer, explore the beautiful shores of Lake Llanquihue or master the rapids in Futaleufú. Climb to the peak of a volcano and ski down its snow-dusted flanks in winter.

Experience a diversity of cultures in the Southern Chile region, from the indigenous Mapuche to German, Austrian and Swiss influences. Try delicious fresh seafood on Chiloé Island and sample European-inspired dairy products in Osorno.

The main access points to Southern Chile are in Puerto Montt, Temuco and Osorno. Fly to Puerto Montt from Santiago and other major airports. There is a railway that connects Puerto Montt to Puerto Varas and Osorno. Buses are readily available across the region.

Visit Southern Chile between November and March to experience the region in its summertime period, or between June and August for adventures in the snow. Whether you want to conquer a volcano or relax amid ancient forests, Southern Chile entices you to experience its landscapes year round.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Southern Chile during the COVID-19 outbreak?
COVID-19 may have changed how we travel, but it hasn't halted our passion for exploring. Here are some tips on how to cope with the new challenges of travelling:
  • Know if any restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so remember to check before you book.
  • Requirements state that you must wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
  • To decrease the risk of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer.
  • You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. You'll need to remove it for X-ray scanning.
  • Put any personal items (keys, wallet and phone) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to touch and inspect your belongings.
