Puerto Montt is the launching pad to Patagonia going in one direction, as well as the largest transportation hub in the south of Chile. But, there is plenty to do in and around the city itself. If you are looking for a unique and ultimately tranquil experience in a cool climate, Puerto Montt is perfect for the occasion. It is the home to Chile’s massive fishing industry, so you will appreciate its fresh seafood and salty folk lining the harbor.
Visit the notable Puerto Montt Historical Museum Juan Pablo II which documents the earthquake of 1987, and the Plaza de Armas and German Monument in the city’s town square. The city’s iconic Angelmó district sits on the harbor where ferries depart to destinations across the bay, but it’s also the place to go for great food and fun bars. Just outside town, you will find Monte Verde where you can go on walking trails to the archaeological dig that discovered the earliest known inhabitants of the Americas, dating back 18,500 years.
When traveling to Puerto Montt you can also go outside of town to go hiking in Alerce Andino, where you can see the beautiful Fitzroya trees that are 2,500 to 3,000 years old, or another hike to the Las Chaicas waterfalls.
