On the Pacific Coast of South America, stretching from the tropics just short of Antarctica, Chile is a long, narrow country rarely wider than 178 km (111 miles). The vast and diverse landscape that runs from the northern plains of the Atacama Desert, through the central region of the Lake District, and down to the southernmost tip of Patagonia makes Chile one of the last great refuges of rugged natural splendor. From towering Andean peaks to deep canyons, Chile adventure tours have it all: sapphire-blue glaciers, turquoise lakes, sandy beaches, snow-capped volcanoes, broad river valleys and precipitous headlands. This magnificent country is truly a wonderland waiting to be discovered.
