This arduous ascent of one of Chiles most active volcanoes, Villarrica, challenges the extremes of endurance for both young and old. Climbing in knee to waist-deep snow up to the 2,847 metre summit reveals a stark backdrop of freshly powered snow, which contrasts against a royal blue horizon. The dynamic panoramas during this climb reveal a stunning natural beauty high amongst the clouds. You experience the surrealness of nature from the surrounding mountain peaks, ever-present throughout this journey.

This day sees you starting at 5am and not finishing until 7pm. There’s a few stops whilst climbing, but it’s not for the unfit.
