Planned Itinerary

This morning, gather for an exclusive Discovery Series discussion on the fascinating Mapuche people native to this area. While the Mapuche only make up about four percent of Chile's total population, their traditions surrounding the extended family and their agricultural customs have had widespread influences.
Then depart for Petrohue Falls, where you can explore the lush setting surrounding the rapids. Petrohue Falls is located just a short distance downstream from Lake Todos los Santos, and the chute-like waterfall is supported by basaltic lava. Enjoy the views of Osorno Volcano in the distance.
Later, enjoy a visit to Angelmo Fish Market with your Program Director. Walk amidst the bustling stalls and browse some of the local seafood found in the nearby Chilean lakes. Perhaps sample the local curanto stew, a mixture of meat, seafood, and vegetable, and admire an array of dried shellfish. Then you’ll enjoy some time at leisure and lunch on your own in the area.
You'll also have a presentation about tomorrow's travel through the Andes, to prepare you for what promises to be a rewarding and scenic, if long, day. Enjoy a pisco sour tasting with your Program Director, then savor dinner at local restaurant.
