Great choice for walking holidays
Chile’s incredible geography encompasses some of the most amazing contrasts imaginable. With the virtually impassable Andes to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west, this slender country stretches almost 2700 miles from north to south.
To the north the land rises and becomes more arid as it reaches the forbidding Atacama Desert, while in the south the land falls away, and the region between mountains and ocean fades into pristine walking country. Serrated peaks, sparkling glaciers and clear lakes are interspersed with pine forest and poppy strewn meadows. The wildlife and cultural history is just as diverse - expect to see guanaco, llama, pink flamingo and Andean condor as you take in the Inca fortresses, Indian villages and ancient rock art beneath cobalt blue skies.
