Our day:

Today we visited Osorno Volcano, an active volcano, and Petrohue Waterfalls, two iconic landmarks in southern Chile. Our luxury motor coach picked us up at our hotel on the southern shores of Llanquihue Lake, and during our drive, it gave us a glimpse into the history of the German settlers and the agriculture of the area. First stop: Vincente Perez Rosales National Park, which has excellent views of the Petrohue Waterfalls and a trek through the forest. Next stop: Todos Los Santos Lake, the origin of the Petrohue River, where we were treated to a boat ride on the lake with black sand beaches. A few homes dotted the shore, but since its declaration as a park in the 1920s, no new parcels can be purchased—third stop: lunch of local salmon in the picturesque village of Ensenada.

Our fourth stop was the ski resort of the Osorno Volcano, where we could ride the ski lift to the top, trek to the top, or hang out in the restaurant. Then, we were back at Hotel Solace.
