Villarrica Volcano Hike

Climb to the top of the Villarrica volcano on this hiking route and enjoy breathtaking views of the mountains located in this area of Chile.

Villarrica Volcano Hike

At 6 am, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Pucón and drive to the base of the Villarrica Volcano.

Upon arrival at the foothills, we'll take a chairlift up to an altitude of 2,000 meters above sea level. From there, we'll begin a hiking route to the summit, reaching an elevation of 2,847 meters above sea level.

The ascent lasts 4 to 5 hours and is of medium-high difficulty. Participants will see the Villarrica crater, a caldera that produces smoke and measures 200 meters in diameter.

At the summit, views include surrounding peaks like the Lanín and Quetrupillán volcanoes, and the Villarica and Calafquén lakes. On clear days, the surrounding green valleys may also be visible.

A stop will be made for a picnic lunch while enjoying the panoramic views.

We will then take the chairlift back to the base and return to your hotel in Pucón, arriving at 6 pm.
