Experience Puerto Varas

GASTRONOMY

Puerto Varas is a charming town quickly gaining popularity amongst travelers, thanks to its dazzling streets that unite German and Chilean influences. This blending of two cultures is also reflected in the food. Travelers will find adorable little cafes serving rich hot cocoa and Chilean breakfast options. There are also some delectable modern restaurants that offer a fusion culinary experience unlike any other.

CULTURE

Resembling a small German village, Puerto Varas has an interesting cultural scene that blends Chilean and European. Settlers from Germany arrived in the late 19th century and the city evolved into a stunning storybook destination. In the neighboring town of Puerto Octay, you can get a look into the history while exploring the Museo del Colono. Then, stop into one of the Chocolate factories for a delicious lesson about this confection.

ADVENTURE

One of the most alluring features of Puerto Varas is the two sleeping giant volcanos that provide a beautiful backdrop to the town. If you seek heart-pounding adventures, head to Volcan Osorno in the winter and ski down the explosive slopes. For those looking for a light upper body workout, grab a paddle and kayak among calm lake waters.

NATURE

Nature lovers must spend a day or two wandering the woods of Alerce Andino National Park. This park is home to the oldest forest in the world, with trees towering overhead dating back more than 2500 years. Lagoons and hiking trails weave through the forest, as pumas, cougars, foxes, and birds live peacefully. Alerce Andino is an ancient paradise that should be explored by anyone who adores the wilderness.
