Puerto Varas - Photos: Mario Ptasik - Interpatagonia S.A. uerto Varas is situated on the south west margin of lake Llanquihue, 20 km. from Puerto Montt, and possesses all the poetry of its houses full of roses and the intimacy of the bay.
One can appreciate the evidence of German colonization in their typical constructions and beautiful gardens. The volcanoes Calvuco and Osorno stand out in the horizon. The insertion of different cultures in these desolate difficult territories where nature offers all its beauty but also big difficulties keeps being a strong challenge for man.
