With its snow-covered mountain peaks, lush forests, and rolling hills, the Aysén Region in southern
Chile creates a picturesque backdrop for your holidays. Its isolated beauty is
located in the north-western Patagonian region - with the Pacific Ocean to the west, and the Magallanes region and the
Chilean Antarctica to the south - offering you an unparalleled holiday setting. You can have an
adventure-packed agenda or a leisurely-paced
time of discovery of this region’s natural beauty - a combination of volcanic mountains, glaciers, ice fields, and ocean.
Go
white-water rafting, or pick a calm spot for
fishing in one of the rivers. Elizalde, Risopatrón and Palena are a few of the
lakes adding a jewel-toned dimension to this region's charm. Much of it has been protected with each park offering its unique perspective of the
Aysén Region. There is the
Northern Ice Field, the San Rafael Lagoon, as well as the Queulat National Park. Explore the sanctuary of the
Marble Caves. The picturesque Carretera Austral is an inviting southern highway for an enjoyable drive. After a day of exploring, the comfort of your vacation rental is a relaxing way to recall each day’s freshly-made memories.
With
Puerto Guadal as your starting point, there are
many attractions to capture your attention. During the month of February, there is a week-long fiesta – including Chilean-style
horseracing. Every celebration is accompanied by traditional foods. Go
fly fishing in Río Baker or head to the Lago General Carrera or Lago Bertrand. Discover the hidden mine,
La Mina Escondida, a two-hour drive from Puerto Guadal. Saddle up for the day and find the fossil beds in the nearby hills. The waterfalls
Cascadas Río Los Maquis can be seen approximately five kilometres east of town.
