Chile · PUCóN TOURS
A lake town under a live volcano, with hot springs in the forest around it. The 4 below cover the Villarrica ascent, the kayak and rafting days and the thermal circuits, with prices and the weather rules that decide each morning.
Meet Zenit Travel in Pucón before dawn, fit your boots and gear, then climb Villarrica Volcano with one guide for every three people. After 5 to 6 hours, you may reach the 2,847-meter crater for views, fumaroles, and perhaps lava. Descend by foot and controlled snow slides when conditions allow.
“Guides were so nice and really good fun. Made for an excellent and very scenic tour. Would strongly recommend thanks guys”
Start at 6:00 a.m. in Pucón for a guided ascent of 2,847-meter Villarrica Volcano. Zenit supplies trekking boots, crampons, and ice axes, while guides such as Luisa, Felipe, Agustin, Leo, Edgar, and Jorge support the climb. Expect about 1,700 meters of ascent, summit fumaroles, lake views, and a snow-toboggan descent.

La descente a été cauchemardesque pour moi, je ne voyais rien avec le givre dans mes lunettes, grosse crampe à la cuisse gauche au quart de…”

“Guillermo is the best guide in Chile. Fun, knowledgeable, entertaining, and easy on the eyes! Great equipment too. We were the Dream Team!”
Ride from Antilco Horsetrekking through pastures, forest, and along the Liucura River toward a waterfall and views of Villarrica, Quetrupillan, and Lanin volcanoes. The pace builds from walking to trotting, cantering, and sometimes galloping. This four-hour route suits experienced mountain riders. Mathias and the team handle bookings and rider orientation.
“An incredible experience overall. Mathias and his team were very helpful and professional. Easy to speak and and coordinate with Mathias. The horses were great and the trail was stunning. Would definitely do it again.”
