Travel Tips and Stories of Carretera Austral in Chile
travelers stories about Mountain range in Carretera Austral, Chile

Mountain range in Carretera Austral, Chile

It was March, 2014, and I was heading south with my bicycle. My first long distance travel, I had started in Santiago de Chile after quitting my job and selling everything I owned, 3 months later I was at this spot, heading south, with no clear destination but by that time I was feeling I had to reach Punta Arenas in Chile and then see what was next. In the meantime I had plenty of time to capture the moments I was living and creating some good work in photography. This photo briefs what I still do today, after 4 years, I am still on my bicycle but this time, in northern Chile.

  11 km from Carretera Austral


Las noches de invierno en el Lago Chelenko (General Carrera) son especialmente tranquilas y hermosas. Afuera el frío asecha y obliga el abrigo, sin embargo la Luna emerge enorme, luminosa y soberbia bañando el Chelenko y las montañas y cerros que lo rodean como la Cordillera Castillo.

Trekking Laguna Cerro Castillo, immersed in the center of Patagonia in the Eleventh Region of Aysén. The journey starts in Villa Cerro Castillo, 1.45 hours from Coyhaique (capital of the Aysén Region). Two payments must be made at the base: one of $4000 and another of $9000 Chilean pesos. The trekking is 7 km uphill, and on average it is 3 hours uphill and 2.5 hours downhill. It is recommended to be well equipped so as not to have any problems; trekking stick, water, chocolate, good shoes and adequate clothing for the changing climate in Patagonia. It is worth making the effort and going up.

travelers stories about Glacial landform in Aysén, Chile

Glacial landform in Aysén, Chile

  93 km from Carretera Austral


San Rafael Lake is an arc-shaped coastal lake located in the Aysén del General Carlos Ibáñez del Campo Region of Chile, within the national park that bears its name. To the north the lagoon is connected to the Moraleda Channel, to the south lies the Ofqui Isthmus. To the west and east lie the Taitao Peninsula and the Northern Patagonian Ice Field respectively. The Lagoon was formed by the retreat of the San Rafael Glacier in the Northern Patagonian Ice Field. Today it is a popular tourism destination, and ships sail from Puerto Chacabuco to the lagoon nearly every day to see the glacier.

In the middle of Carretera Austral 50 kilometers away and only 1 hour from Cochrane, this glorious place of nature is hidden. While there you can walk on millenary ice, enjoy photography and observe Condors in their natural habitat. It is without a doubt a destination that you can not ignore.
