Hey guys,
As part of a trip next year, I am possibly planning a foray into Southern Chile from Santiago, using a LAN Airpass (cheap flights!). Anyways, I was wondering what the best destinations would be (ie: flying to Punta Arenas or Puerto Montt) and spots to visit. I am planning a week or more around Santiago (visiting La Campana, etc..) and several days in northern Chile (Arica, Lauca NP, possibly Los Flamencos?) before heading into Peru.
Also, would we be better off flying Santiago to Arica or would it be worth catching buses up and stopping in places to do some birding? All up I would like to spend 3 weeks in the country.
Thanks heaps,
Damien
