Climb the Puntiagudo volcano in Los Lagos region, near Puerto Varas (4 days)

If you love mountaineering, then I’ve got the perfect adventure for you. Over four days, I’ll take you to the top of the Puntiagudo Volcano, Chile‘s most iconic peak. Join me!

First, let me share some interesting facts about the Puntiagudo volcano:

• Some say it resembles the Matterhorn for its spectacular route to the top.

• The volcano is visible from most of the lakes in the region.

• It is covered in a thick Valdivian forest, with samples of Patagonian cypress, mañíos, ferns, tepas, ulmos, and others.

• It is home to pumas, foxes, hummingbirds, and other species.

• The ascent begins at an altitude of 200 meters and it is usually done in the winter when the base is covered in snow.

Now, let’s continue on to our adventure:

Our experience begins at Puerto Varas. We’ll drive towards the Rupanco Lake and hike the path through the northwest side of the volcano. We’ll go through forests, snow ramps and ice with views of the Los Lagos Region. The ascent will take us three days and we’ll follow the same path down on the fourth day.

So, are you ready for 4-spectacular days in Patagonia? Then send your request and I’ll take care of all the details.
