Parque Nacional Chiloé
Following in the footsteps of Darwin after 150 years, the
visitor will find an isolated but wildly beautiful assortment of
rolling hills, native forests and pristine coastline in Parque
Nacional Chiloé. It is home to the Chilote fox, the rare pudú
(miniature deer) and over 100 species of birds, including the
Magellanic penguin. The park offers a variety of walking trails,
through forests and under twisted tepú trees, along miles of
unspoilt coastline or along nature trails that lead up onto the
hills for superb views of the surrounds. One of the draws of the
hiking trails in Chiloé is the wide selection of short hikes,
making it a good activity even for visitors who aren't in the best
shape. The park is also home to several Huilliche Indian
communities. The information centre at the entrance has good
displays on the flora, fauna and the traditions and folklore of the
Huilliche people.
