Southern Region

A visit to the impressive waterfalls at Laguna de Laja is recommended. Temuco marks the beginning of the Lake District, where Lake Villarica and the Trancura and Cincira rivers combine to create beautiful scenery, and an angler’s paradise. Lake Todos los Santos is also well worth a visit. At the southernmost end of the railway line and the Pan American Highway, there is the picturesque town of Puerto Montt and, nearby, the colourful small fishing port of Angelmo. Inveterate travellers will wish to go on to visit Chiloé Island and possibly also the southernmost part of the country, the fjords, glaciers and harsh landscape of Chilean Patagonia. The whole area of Magallanes and Tierra del Fuego is worth exploring during the summer season.
