Few South American countries boast of a landscape and a climate so diverse than that of Chile. Although averaging only 180km wide, it stretches some 4,000km from north to south which, if transferred to Europe, would represent a distance and range of climates from Norway's icy northern tip to the Sahara Desert in Africa.
DESERT
Mummies and treasures of the Atacameņo Culture lie hidden in the vast stretch of arid desert that makes up northern Chile. An area of supreme natural beauty which emcompasses salt lakes, the stunning Tatio geysers and picturesque villages.
LAKE DISTRICT
Fertyle countryside punctuated by snow-capped volcanoes and brillant esmerald lakes provide the visitor with a variety of excursions and activities, walking, horse-riding, skiing or camping under the stars in the Andes.
PATAGONIA
Southern Chile embraces the wild, romantic Patagonia, a land of glaciers, immense granite massifs, and the barren, windswept tip of South America whre the Andes sink in to the icy waters. Places named by early navigators remain, leaving little to the imagination... Desolate Bay, East and West Furies and Useless Bay.
