I went around the Lake on my chromoly bicycle, adapted for an unplanned trip of 3/4 days. They are about 170/180 very pleasant kms, with interesting demands. Once the tour was finished, to test it I rented an electric bicycle, and did the circuit again one day. Highly recommended for cycling tourism, in populated areas, with nearby cities, with traffic and without bike lanes. It gives a lot of autonomy and freedom and makes the bicycle trip very enjoyable!! At daily averages of 60/70 km the trip really becomes very accessible!!

I firmly believe that the best way to get to know the lake and its surroundings is by car, plus you can go your way, stopping where you want, as long as you want. Unfortunately we went right into limbo, where the summer activities had already ended and the winter activities had not really started, so most of the places and towns we visited were closed and/or deserted. Still, the views you have from anywhere on the lake are breathtaking and thoroughly enjoyed! If you can, avoid going between May and June which is when everything is dead!

Lake Llanquihue, the second largest in Chile, dominates most landscapes in the Puerto Varas region, especially those where the Osorno Volcano is part of the scene. It is a very important lake for the region, not only for tourism but also for the local economy. It is interesting the black and rocky color of its sands.
