Description:
This tour will take you to visit Lahuen Ñadi National Park which has the only central valley larch forest with medium-age specimens, with a trunk diameter between 30 and 60 cm's where you will walk for about one hour through the beautiful landscapes.
Here you will find lovely trails, great bird watching, native animals and flowers, and species like the chucao tapaculos, black-throated huet huets, Darwin's toads, choroys, monitos del monte, hares and chingues. The opportunity for some great photos!
Next, you will reboard your vehicle and travel to visit the Felmer Museum ( Museum of the Colonization), sited in the locality of New Braunau, at a short distance from de Puerto Varas, in the midst of the countryside of the German colonization in the 1850s.
Your last stop will be the beautiful city of Puerto Varas, also called the "city of roses." Puerto Varas overlooks Lake Llanquihue, one of Chile's largest lakes, where the reflection of the eternal snow that covers the Osorno Volcano is mirrored in the clear waters and there you will get free time in order to explore the city and visit the handicraft market for a little bit of shopping.
