Volcan Osorno - the Chilean Mont Ventoux
So you consider yourself a good cyclist? You think you should have been selected for the Tour de France? Well then this is your time to shine. Cycling out of Puerto Varas towards Volcan Osorno is probably the best Étape in Chile! After cruising towards Ensenada it gets serious and you will climb towards the Ski Resort of Osorno. Within 15km you will gain 1100m meters of altitude while (hopefully) enjoying the view of the Volcano and the lago Llanquihue. Stop at the ski center for a coffee before heading back downhill towards Puerto Varas.
