Osorno Volcano and cultural meeting in Williche community

We invite you with this excursion to live a beautiful experience where we will learn about the hidden stories that exist on the slopes of the Osorno Volcano

From Puerto Varas we skirt Lake Llanquihue for 40 km to the east where we begin the ascent to the Osorno volcano along a narrow and steep paved route  

The volcano has about twenty craters and we will get to know the most iconic of them on a short hike with chairlifts included with incredible views of the Petrohué River valley and Calbuco Volcano

 We will talk about volcanology, the geomorphology of the environment and the significance that volcanoes had in the Mapuche worldview

Then we go to a nearby Williche indigenous community, where Mrs. Veronica will be waiting for us at the community ruca with a typical lunch to live a nice intercultural experience where we will continue learning about the Mapuche Williche worldview through stories and conversations next to a traditional fire

To finish we will take a short walk along a beautiful country path within the indigenous community accompanied by a guide from the same community

The countryside in this sector has an extraordinary scenic beauty with views of the Osorno, Calbuco and Puntiagudo volcanoes. Soft, green ridge with old stables
