チリの天然記念物・トップ20

the last hour is challenging and up but worth it

The British Lookout is a natural amphitheater in the French Valley of Torres del Paine National Park. Named after the British expeditions of the 1950s, it is notable for its lenga forest that frames panoramic views of the hanging glaciers of the French Valley and the imposing granite peaks: Cuernos del Paine, Paine Grande, and Cerro Catedral.

The lake is nestled amidst the vastness of the Andes Mountains. It's worth pausing for a moment to observe the reflection of the hills and feel the tranquility of the place.

Good view of the city. BUT: Too many people because it's a tourist hotspot

The park can only be entered from the north or south. All other entrances are closed. You must register at the entrance with your name and pass number. Admission is free.

Pucón is located on Lake Villarrica and, with numerous restaurants, small supermarkets, hotels, and hostels, is perfectly geared for tourists and the starting point for our hike up the Villarrica volcano. Since the sheer number of tour operators overwhelmed us, we'd appreciate a recommendation! At 6 a.m. sharp, we set off with a group of 11 people and four guides by bus to the entrance of the national park. Equipped with hiking poles, helmets, gas masks, gloves, sturdy rain gear, gaiters, hiking boots with matching crampons, butt sliders for the return trip, and an ice axe, which we used primarily to slow ourselves down on the descent, we set off. The climb was very strenuous. From the rim, covered in fresh snow, we could see into the crater and, in the perfect weather, had a fantastic panoramic view. In the evening, we jumped into the lake again and celebrated the sunset in Pucón with numerous other visitors.

Sturdy shoes are required and the route as indicated cannot currently be walked. The circuit shown on the map is not available due to a barrier. You must constantly walk the main path and then take it back again. The path is easy to find and follow, however, and you can still follow the path on this Koomot route and simply leave one part open.

From Wikipedia: Moai (actually Rapanui Moai Maea "stone figure") are the name given to the colossal stone statues of Easter Island. They are part of larger ceremonial complexes (Marae), similar to those known from other areas of Polynesian culture. The exact age of the figures is disputed, but it is now considered certain that they are no older than 1500 years. Sebastian Englert numbered and catalogued 638 statues, the Archaeological Survey and Statue Project from 1969 to 1976 identified 887, but there were probably originally over 1000.[1]
