Parque Nacional Nahuelbuta

Reviewed By javierabelen98 - Santiago Metropolitan Region, Chile

It is a charming place, where the native species of trees such as araucaria and birds are preserved, while you go all over the park you can do trekkking, picnic, or go watch the sunset at the stone lookout of el aguila which offers a unique view, where yes or if you have to take pictures and pick up the trails with their unique vegetation. It is a paronama for the family friends or lovers of nature. The entrance to the park costs 1500CLP and has tourist guides.

Conguillio National Park

Reviewed By carlbenk - Carlisle, United States

We spent two days hiking in this park. Sendero Sierra Nevada rates up there with one of the best hikes I’ve ever done. It provides astounding views of Volcan Llaima and Laguna Conguillío plus old growth Coigue and Auracaria forests and meadows of alstomeria and aster. The road from Malipeuco is paved up to the entrance to the national park. From there on the road is unpaved, rough, and narrow but still perfectly doable in our rented Peugeot 2008 crossover.

2 nights in this place was one of the top highlights of our 3 week travels thro Patagonia Chile and Argentina. It's up there amongst the big boys for its beauty, tranquility and amazing scenery and treks.

Santuario el Cani

Si Es Posible, Incluyan Este Santuario De La Naturaleza, Es Un Lugar Soñado, Ideal Para La Gente Que Gusta Del Montañismo

Reviewed By minifenn - Worthing, United Kingdom

One of my favourite hikes I’ve done in South America. Very tough beginning, and you need to find an extra burst of energy to make it up to the mirador at the end, but it is a really beautiful trek. Bring insect repellent for the horse flies! The info booklet you get when you enter is also amazing and I wish every park gave one of the same quality.

Monumento Natural Cerro Nielol

Reviewed By Rachaefox - Takaka, New Zealand

Brilliant exercise with well established trails (recommend good walking shoes though). Beautiful forest and also some playgrounds for children in various areas. Bird song and great views of the city. 3000 pesos per person (about 6 NZD). Also accesible by vehicle. We spent about 3 hours walking around and really enjoyed it

Parque Nacional Villarrica

Reviewed By Ingelisse2020 - Golden, United States

The close-up views of Villarrica/Rukapillan volcano are worth the trip, even if you don't hike. You can go up to the ski area and even take a guided walk up to the top, a strenuous hike over snow requiring you slide down to get back down. I did not dare.
