That&#8217;s because it sits on the southern shores of the 330-square mile Llanquihue Lake, which, despite its peaceful ice caves, sweeping promenade and black-sand shores, is very much a water-sports destination. Also known for its German architecture (the town was founded by 19<sup>th<\/sup> century German immigrants), follow the locals and escape to the Petrohu\u00e9 waterfalls if you want to see a real chute bubble and froth.<\/p>\n<h3>Torres del Paine National Park<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7636\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2017\/02\/patagonian-gaunaco-istock-espiegle-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/patagonian-gaunaco-istock-espiegle-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/patagonian-gaunaco-istock-espiegle-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/patagonian-gaunaco-istock-espiegle-330x220.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/patagonian-gaunaco-istock-espiegle-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/patagonian-gaunaco-istock-espiegle-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/patagonian-gaunaco-istock-espiegle.jpg 1698w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the Torres del Paine National Park contains cascading waterfalls, roaring creeks, shimmering lakes and endless horizons of jagged mountain peaks.

Named after the famous Irish General who helped liberate Chile from Spanish rule, the park is inhabited by indigenous Chileans known as the Kaweskar and is topped by the Lautaro volcano which towers at 3,607 metres above sea-level. It&#8217;s a glacier called Pio XI that represents the main attraction in the park, however. The largest in the southern hemisphere, it covers roughly 786 miles in total.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to see ragged mountaintops or wander through Chile&#8217;s vibrant markets, why not book a Trafalgar trip such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/destinations\/south-america\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Patagonian Grand Adventure<\/a> or the Cultures &amp; Contrasts of South America?<\/p>\n<p><em>Images Credits: Santiago \u00a9 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.istockphoto.com\/gb\/photo\/a-mix-of-classic-and-modern-architecture-santiago-chile-gm175439011-20410940?st=_p_santiago\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">iStock\/tovfla<\/a>.
