Chile emerges majestically and imposingly with its volcanoes, lakes, deserts, untainted
glaciers and forests, each of them places of silence, of vastness and of
age-old nature. Just two things remain constant among its long and narrow
geography: the imposing Andean Mountain chain and the enormous Pacific Ocean.
In the extreme North is the Atacama Desert, acknowledged the driest place on
earth. Its sands hide archaeological treasures over 10,000 years old. More inland are
small settlements of unchanged indigenous peoples, tarns, geysers, salt
flats and a very particular wildlife. The majestic desert slowly gives
way to the cultivated valleys of Central Chile, with its vineyards, large fruit
plantations, major cities, beautiful little coastal resorts and the best
ski resorts of the Southern hemisphere. Further south are the Lakelands with
broad meadows, native forests, lakes, volcanoes and picturesque towns. The
true force of nature makes itself known in Patagonia, where cold-temperate jungle
gives way to the Patagonian steppe and the territory fragments into tiny
islands, fjords, lakes and glaciers, before reaching the end of the
world - where the Andes disappears into the sea. Lost in the immense
ocean is Easter Island, the navel of the world, with its mysterious moai. Really a
country of geographic extremes!
