October 3, 2023 - 1 minute read

Declared one of the world’s great road trips by National Geographic and others, the Carretera Austral (Southern Highway) meanders for more than 770 miles through northern Patagonia.

Chile Concept can set you up with a self-drive rental car to explore this incredible place (and its numerous national parks) on your own.

Programs are designed for drivers to cruise the Southern Highway at their own pace between Puerto Montt and Balmaceda or even all the way down to Punta Arenas and Tierra del Fuego for those who are feeling extra adventurous.

Along the way are iconic sights like Pumalin Park, snowcapped Michinmahuida stratovolcano, fly fishing friendly Lake Yelcho and Queulat National Park as well as remote outposts of civilization like Villa Santa Lucia, La Junta and Puyuhuapi.

In addition to arranging the vehicle and designing a detailed itinerary, Chile Concept can make hotel reservations, recommend restaurants, and link you with local partners all the way down the Carretera Austral.
