Things to Do in Pucon: Local Guide
Chile's adventure capital sits on the shore of Lago Villarrica in the Lake District, watched over by the near-perfectly conical Volcán Villarrica — one of South America's most active and climbable volcanoes. White-water rafting, hot springs, and summer hiking in Huerquehue National Park complete an extraordinary outdoor programme.
