Lake District

 


Osorno Volcano viewed from Puerto Varas – Chile. The volcano is 2652 m above sea level and a real challenge for practiced mountaineers. In order to climb its peak, you need an experienced mountain guide who leads you safely up the steep, icy slopes. From the top you have a gorgeous view of the whole Llanquihue Lake and its surroundings. It is in fact something special when you can claim: I have ascended the Osorno!

 


Osorno Volcano, in Chile, viewed from lake „Todos los Santos“. The water of Lago Todos los Santos - Allhallows Lake – is bright green. The colour is a result of algaes in the water, due to the colour its nickname is Emerald Lake.

 


Puntiagudo Volcano, Chile, As seen from „Todos los Santos“ lake – Allhallows Lake. Puntiagudo, 2490 m above sea level is a still active volcano, on good weather conditions one can see a little white trail of smoke.

 


Osorno Volcano. The volcano is 2652 m above sea level and a real challenge for practised mountaineers. In order to climb its peak, you need an experienced mountain guide that leads you safely up the steep, icy slopes or, as can be seen on the picture, along deep crevasses. It is something special when you can claim: I have ascended the Osorno! An ideal starting point for the ascent is Puerto Varas, Chile at the Llanquihue Lake. Here you can find good and qualified mountain guides.

 


„Carelmapu’s“ fishermen Carelmapu is one of the oldest settlements in the South of Chile. Here, wild strawberrys grow on the beaches; from those plants all species that are cultivated commercially today have originated.

 


Ox cart on rails Here in Chile you can still marvel such means of “transport” sometimes. Some people still know such “implements” from childhood or just from narrations. In fact, such a thing can still be found here!
