Beautiful hike to the base of the Osorno Volcano glacier located at 2,000 meters above sea level.
Along the way, while enjoying extraordinary views, we will learn general aspects of volcanology in Chile, the geological history of Osorno and the main characteristics of this glacier.
From the base of the glacier you can see the island of Chiloe in its entire extension if it is clear or the cloudiness is high.
To get to the starting point of our trek we will use both sections of the mountain center's chairlifts, which run from 1,200 to 1,640 meters above sea level. Height at which we begin to walk.
This trek is suitable for anyone who enjoys walking. It has no technical difficulty.
