Go from Puerto Varas following the route 225 eastwards until the beautiful village of Ensenada at the base of Osorno Volcano. Starting from Ensenada you can make many unforgettable excursions e.g. ride up the single track on the steep flanks of Osorno Volcano (4WD only) to take after about 15 kms the ski lift (also in summer) to enjoy the wonderful view from up there. About seven km after Ensenada you get to the famous waterfalls of Petrohué River and seven further km eastwards you can see the village of Petrohué at Todos Los Santos Lake with Puntiagudo Volcano in the background. Go from Ensenada to the south following Petrohué River by route 69 and see Ralún where Petrohué River enters into Reloncaví Estuary deeply carved into the preandean hills forming a picturesque landscape of forested mountains and the dark blue sea.
