Puerto Varas
A small but fast-growing resort town on the edge of Lago Llanquihue, Puerto Varas is renowned for its view of the Osorno and Calbuco volcanoes. Stunning rose arbors and Germanic-style architecture grace the many centuries-old houses and churches that dot this tranquil town. Every year new hotels here crop up as tourism continues to rise significantly. Tons of cafés, trendy restaurants, an excellent casino, and a budding bar scene all point towards Puerto Varas's ascendancy as a serious challenge to Pucón, the region's top vacation spot.
