Later, we navigate the Todos los Santos Lake in the direction of Petrohue. There, returning to the land route, we visit the Petrohue Falls (entrance is not included in the price of the Andean Crossing, and they are not visited all year round, only in the months in which access to them and the hours of light and the Park's schedule allow it) and finally, bordering Lake Llanquihue you reach the city of Puerto Varas.
It is in this way that we finish a tour that actually began in 1913, when a group of tourists, led by Ricardo Roth, crossed the Andes Mountains, through a border crossing, joining Peulla (on the Chilean) with Bariloche (for Argentina). As a good way to unite these two neighboring countries and thus cross the Southern Cone, CRUCE ANDINO® was born as an ecological adventure that you cannot miss.
