Villarrica Volcano Climb – Pucon, Chile

 
Volcano from Town

 
At Summit



Into the Volcano

 
Sliding Down

Technical climbing wasn’t required to climb the Volcano (2847 meters), even though the Volcano was covered in snow. It took about three hour to zig-zag to the top in a fairly slow and tedious manner. On top, we were about to peek into the volcano, trying to avoid the sulfur smoke spouting out of the top of it; gagging every time we did get a whiff. The descent, however, was fast and a lot of fun. We slid down snow shoots, wearing water proof pants with reinforced butts.

Thanks for sharing your experience and pictures of this wonderful place. I was considering to travel this place but wasn't sure because i didn't had sufficient knowledge about that Hoteles Pucon. You helped me out a lot. Thanks again.
