Osorno is a volcano located east of Lake Llanquihue and is 2,652 m high. If you want to visit the volcano, it is best to rent a car from Puerto Varas to the village of Ensenada. The trail will take you along Lago Llanquihue, where you can take a break and enjoy the view. If you feel like an adventure, leave the rental car and hike up to the edge of the volcano. Alternatively you can take the chairlift to Osorno Volcano. From the top you have a magnificent view of the surrounding countryside. Enjoy the view of Casablanca, Calbuco, Monte Tronador and Cerro Puntiagudo. Look forward to an unforgettable experience on the Volcan Osorno.
