Track: Loncoche to Puerto Varas, Chile

Day in key statistics

  • 262 km - distance driven

  • 98 km/h average speed in 2.40 hours motion time

  • One crucial Tourist Office visit - meaning we spend the evening re-planning the upcoming week of our trip. Due to a tragic mud-slide at the village Santa Lucia mid December 2017, that part of the road is still blocked. The alternative is a ferry, for which the waiting list is several days. Alfajores here we come- we will reroute through Argentina.

Local Fact

  • The vulcano Osorno has a height of 2661 km above sea level. Wiki says the last eruption was 1869, so we can sleep without any worry!

Highlights of the day​

  • ​The hotel room has the most perfect view on the vulcanos - waking up, we will see the famous vulcano Osorno. Wow!

  • Sleeping inn, with nice morning walk in village Loncoche - where on Sunday morning apart from some dogs, every one seemed to still be sleeping. Lovely layed-back atmosphere!
