When is the best time to travel to the South of Chile?

The south of Chile, is where the Lakes and Volcanoes district are located.

Many travellers they want to travel in the summer, which is from December to March, but we prefer to recommend the Autumn season from April and May or the Spring season from September to November, because there are fewer people traveling and the colours in the mountains and gardens are wonderful.

The winter months are June, July and August, but they are one of the best months for snow’s lovers or rain’s lovers.
