Chiloé, Southern Chile: Lakes, Forests and Volcanoes

Kawell Product The trip begins in Chiloé, the largest island of Chile located in the area of the big lakes. Chiloé presents sumptuous landscapes, a strange harmony between water and ground.

The churches of Chiloé, registered as world heritage of humanity, constitute a single example in Latin America of religious architecture out of wood. They represent a tradition initiated on the XVIIth and XVIIIth century by preachers itinerant Jesuits and testify to the successful fusion of the culture and the indigenous and European techniques, the perfect integration of its architecture in the landscape and the environment. Then, return on the continent to discover the area of the Lakes and its imposing landscapes, surrounded by its beautiful snow-covered volcanoes. Lakes, volcanoes and thermal baths are the key words of this second part.
