barryg23 Says: On a clear day the view of Volcan Osorno from Frutillar is stunning. The volcano lies on the other side of the lake and dominates the view. For most of our time in Frutillar, clouds blocked this view so we had to imagine what it looked like. On the morning we left, we went...
barryg23 Says: There's a popular beach on the shores of Lago Llanquihue, with a small area of the lake sectioned off for swimming. Frutillar was quite busy when we visited, despite the cloudy weather. And the weather didn't deter the swimmers either. We spent a goo dhour on the beach,...

spidermiss Says: At one of the many Salons de Te where you can take afternoon tea. Salon de Te Treyen is highly recommended for the lovely hot chocolate and homemade kuchen (cake). You can sit by the bay windows where you can look out onto the lake and get a glimpse of Volcan Osorno. I had...

Favorite thing: Don't miss the delicious sweet . It's sold everywhere in Frutillar. It' s a sort of cake made of light, refreshing fruit cream . I couldn't resist having two at a time. It's a typical German recipe. It goes perfectly with your coffee !!!
