Osorno Volcano Half Day Trip from Puerto Varas

The road to the top takes you through some small communities (picturesque) and then winding up the mountain with beauty all around. At the top, hiking enthusiasts can take a short, strenuous hike (about 40 minutes round trip.) No trees--just rocks and ice and a restaurant and shop and restrooms.

Excellent views and stunning area to visit. They started the 2nd chairlift that goes near the top whilst I was there and the views were even more amazing. It would be equally as stunning during winter. Do both lifts if you get the chance. The national park (and waterfalls) are well worth visiting

The volcano itself is stunning and definitely worth seeing but don't bother do it as part of a trip. By the time we reached the volcano itself we only had 1 hour to explore and this is not enough time to see anything. We managed to get the ski lift right to the top but no time to walk around or see any of the craters and enjoy the scenery - it was straight up, stay on and straight back down. Our guide did speak English but it wasn't a tour, more of a very expensive taxi as he barely spoke to us throughout the journey. He also said we could walk a bit of it but heavily insinuated walking wasn't an option in the time we had. Note, the trip doesn't include costs of ski lifts - it's not too expensive but you will probably need to buy this as you don't really have much time to hike up or around the volcano. This is also another problem: the price. For almost £30 you'd expect more time so you can do it yourself without the ski lift or subsidised it at least.

stay in ensenada then go up there early in the morning, entrance is free, hike up to the snow line, view is awesome, cheap place to stay up there is at the ski lodge

Ben (Benjamin), was fabulous; spoke excellent concise English. We spent two hours walking along the volcano, which was special, which included a walk along a lake. Well recommended tour. Benjamin recommended the rainforest tour which we took two days later, which was also fantastic.

Tive vários problemas, começando pela taxa Adicional para me buscar no hotel onde estava claro na divulgação do Trip, durante a excursão o guia não era muito cuidadoso, mesmo com crianças não dava os tempos necessário para atividades , inclusive meninos ficaram com fome !!

Excelente Tour! Recomiendo mucho Turistour! Tome dos excursiones y de verdad que excelente! Muy amables y atentos a todo!

Passeio imperdível. O vulcão é simplesmente lindo!!! Subimos de carro até o ponto onde se pega o teleférico. A estradinha é ótima. Subimos os dois lances de teleférico e ficamos bem próximos do topo. O vulcão é lindo com o topo coberto de neve. Maravilhoso!!

Ficamos 4 dias em Porto Varas e realmente valeu muito a pena, pegamos dias ensolarados. Fomos ao vulcão de carro, podem alugar carro porque é bem barato e muito tranquilo para dirigir. Chegando lá compramos o passeio de teleférico para subir no vulcão, são 2 teleférico e realmente sobe muito alto, se agasalhem porque é bem frio lá em cima. É maravilhoso!!! Não vão para almoçar, vão para ver paisagem e apreciar uma vista de tirar o fôlego... Máximo um cafezinho ainda não está estruturado para gastronomia.

Un grand merci a notre chauffeur qui cherche les zoros et a notre guide Felipe, qui parle tres bien le français et qui nous a fait decouvrir des lieux magiques. Je recommande vivement. Nous avons passé un moment merveilleux.
