DESTINATION Magallanes National Reserve and Cerro Mirador

If you are in search of the best panoramic view of the Strait of Magellan, this reserve is the right place. One of the attractions of the Magallanes reserve is that it is very adapted for the family visit since there are a large number of sites for picnics and camping.

Extreme caution must be taken with the indications to prevent wild fires. It also has more than 60 kilometers of interpretive and excursion trails, such as the Section of the Chilean Trail called Bocatoma, South Limit of the Magallanes National Reserve. In addition to that, it has a trail for tourists with reduced mobility and a trail of flora, for those who wish to marvel at the variety and beauty of the vegetation present in the place. It has 21.180 hectares and is located very close to Punta Arenas depending on the chosen entrance.

Very close to the Reserve is the Club Andino Ski center, which can be visited year round as it also has activities during the spring and summer: Mountain Bike and Trekking trails.  This ski center is one of the few in the world with an ocean view. The white sport can be practiced between the months of June and September, delivering stunning landscapes.

TIPS

Even though Patagonia can be enjoyed in every season of the year, we recommend your visit between October and April, in the middle of spring in this hemisphere, more sunny days and less rain, therefore more activities to do.

Always use official transport and ask for arrival and departure times in the designated area.

The parks, reserves and natural monuments are managed by the National Forestry Corporation (Conaf). It is important to always follow the instructions of park rangers inside protected wilderness areas. Do not light a fire in unauthorized places or leave the enabled and demarcated trails.

Before your trip, you must have in mind the clothing that you’re going to pack because Patagonia is very cold and extremely windy, warm clothes are fundamental.
