Travel Tips for Valdivia
Austral University
by kiwigal_1
La Universidad Austral de Chile (or Austral University) is the local university. It is located on Isla Teja just across the bridge from the main center.
The university is strong in agriculture, horticulture, botany, forestry careers and has its own botanical gardens which are free to stroll around. I remember coming to Austral University a couple of times to speak with staff and students of the Animal Production faculty for discussions on pastures, dairying and beef production.
Crossing River for Best Brewery in Chile
by Upward
Kunstmann Brewery is located in Valdivia and they have the best beer in Chile. Funny thing is I don't remember getting there, but I do remember leaving. A taxicab is your best option. The seafood market is also a must see especially if you like fruit, vegetables, cheese, fish and "walruses". But people don't eat the "walruses", just feed them and take lots of pictures. See, I saw the first "walrus" while walking over the bridge and it really surprised me. Then I notice that the whole riverside is full of them trying to scavenge scraps from the vendors.
So they were sea lions, I suppose my flora is better than my fauna.
FUERTE MANCERA
by Roalera26
Este fuerte está ubicado en la Isla de Mancera, que no es muy grande, más bien uno se demora 30 minutos en recorrer toda la isla, digamos bordeando la costa... viven algunas familias en la isla, las cuales en verano facilitan espacio para poder acampar por un módico precio...
En el centro de la Isla, subiendo un poco, supuestamente existe otro fuerte
UNIVERSIDAD AUSTRAL
by Roalera26
Si pasas por la Universidad Austral tienes que recorrer sus jardines y edificios. Además está el Centro Tecnológico de la Leche que tiene a la venta excelentes productos lácteos. El Fundo Teja Norte (de la misma casa de estudios) tiene senderos que invitan a pasear y admirar más de 500 especies de flora y mirar las riberas de los ríos Cruces y Cau Cau.
Castillo de Niebla
by kiwigal_1
The Castillo de Niebla is a 30 minute drive approx outside of Valdivia towards the coast. It is the ruins of an old fort which is now a preserved monument and tourist attraction. There are the remains of some of the barracks which now houses a museum with maps, paintings and ornaments and outside there are old gun establishments.
There is a small admission fee.
