Adventure travel at the foot of Osorno Volcano

TerraSur Ecoaventura is a Chilean company specialized in rivers and mountains, and a direct operator of its trips in Ensenada, Chile, in the Puerto Varas district. Our guides are local and we have spent more than 20 years on the Petrohue River, Lake Llanquihue and Osorno Volcano. Our base is a short walk from Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park. Every activity starts there, and it has changing rooms, bathrooms and parking.

Cabañas y Camping Barlovento belongs to the same company and shares the base: you can sleep on the shore of Lake Llanquihue and start your trip from the same place, with no transfers.
