What to do and see in Puerto Montt, Los Lagos Region: The Best Things to do

December 11, 2021 Chanda Heide

Established by German immigrants in 1853, this is now the key port, transit and business hub of the Lakes District – a good place to replenish supplies, pick up Chilean crafts and get an urban jolt before moving on to more pristine pastures. If you're in the mood to sample some of the famous local salmon, the Angelmo harbor market should be your first stop. From there, it's a short boat ride across to Tenglo Island for views of snow-capped volcanic peaks. Santiago is a two-hour flight away.

Volcan Osorno

Snow-capped and shaped like a perfect cone, this striking volcano overlooks a beautiful lake.

We'd heard that it's often cloudy and many days you can't see the peak, but we saw it all day long. In fact, we drove up the winding road to the ski lift which we took all the way up to the snow line. So beautiful!

Parque Nacional Alerce Andino

Reviewed By 633ernestow - Santiago, Chile

As the title says, this national park is less crowded than its famous neighboor Vicente Perez Rosales. Also important, this park does have as much area that is volcanic rock. Wildlife is very abundant, even by the national park office two foxes were meandering without worrying too much about human beings

Angelmo

Reviewed By mjj3609 - San Salvador, El Salvador

This is a local fish market where you can see the fresh catch of the day or buy smoked and cured salmon. It also has a souvenir section and towards the back it has a great view of a bay. This is a most go site.

Reviewed By T5025DQmichaelr

A beautiful, unforgettable voyage through stunning scenery, we sailed south from Puerto Montt in February 2020. Great atmosphere on board, good food, plenty of time to relax and watch the passing landscapes. Would do it again without hesitation. As for alcohol, you can bring it aboard, no one checks, but the crew leaders ask that you don't drink in public. We had cocktails in our cabins! The Navimag 'Evangelistas' is to be replaced with a new ferry ship by mid-2020, and I rather suspect many will remember the modest but comfortable cabins and dining on what is a working ferry craft, an experience unique and apart from international luxury cruising. The crew were great, and their evening briefings amusing and informative.
