Then visit the last church of our tour in a town called Nercón. Return to Puerto Varas. Dinner and Accommodation. (B) (L) (D) DAY 7 (Friday, March 04) PUERTO VARAS - VALDIVIA (Total self-drive: 197 km) After breakfast, you and your party will receive a rental car and get familiar with it. Then, you set off from Puerto Varas in 4x4 and take the South Pan-American Highway towards Valdivia. (197km, 2h 23m). En route we can appreciate the beautiful landscape and some natural attractions, as well as visit the City of Osorno. Upon arrival, check-in at the hotel in Valdivia. The city of Valdivia and the Chiloé Archipelago were once the two southernmost outliers of the Spanish Empire. From 1645 to 1740 the city depended directly on the Viceroyalty of Peru, which financed the building of the Valdivian fort system that turned Valdivia into one of the most fortified cities of the New World. In the second half of the 19th century, Valdivia was the port of entry for German immigrants who settled in the city and surrounding areas. German immigrants and their descendants formed their social club „Club Alemán“, which after World War II changed names to Club la Unión. The brewing industry is a symbol of the area and another important part of the local economy with Kunstmann, the most famous brewery in Valdivia. Beer, along with cold cut meat and sausages, is part of the city's German heritage.

  • Event History of the Santiago Area (Chile): the Sedimentological Archive of Lago Lo Encañado
    Event History of the Santiago area (Chile): the sedimentological archive of Lago Lo Encañado Thomas Pille 1 2 Acknowledgements Om te beginnen zou ik graag mijn promotor, Prof. Dr. Marc De Batist, bedanken voor dit interessante onderwerp en voor de tijd die u hierin gestoken hebt, voor de snelle verbeteringen en de veelbetekende tips en commentaren. Ook Maarten, mijn begeleider, verdient een welgemeende bedanking. Terwijl je het dit jaar zelf heel druk had (een doctoraat dat afgemaakt moest worden, je eerste kindje, een nieuw onderzoeksproject) vond je toch altijd de tijd om mij bij te staan. Vooral je enthousiasme en je doorzettingsvermogen zullen me bijblijven. Voor ieder klein vraagje waarmee ik kwam waren we een paar uur bezig, en vertrok ik niet enkel met een antwoord, maar ook met een hoofd vol extra ideeën. Philipp, obwohl ich ursprünglich nicht dein Thesis-Student war, hast du in der Abwesenheit von Maarten sehr viel Zeit in mein Project investiert. Was mir vor allem gefallen hat war das du bei einer Frage nicht einfach die Antwort gegeben hast, sondern auch versucht hast mir das Prinzip dahinter zu erklären. Vielen Dank für al deine Hilfe, und für eine schöne Reise nach Brest. Ich wünsche dir alles Gute bei deiner Doktorarbeit. I would also like to thank the rest of the RCMG staff, especially to Thomas, Mario, Willem, Oscar, Stan, Katrien and Koen. You were always there to help me if needed, or for a chat during a coffee break. The RCMG is a fantastic working environment. Mijn familie heeft er dit jaar (en eigenlijk doorheen mijn 5-jarige universitaire carrier) altijd voor mij gestaan.

  • Trekking Desolacion Trail. Volcán Osorno, Petrohué Falls,Emerald Lake. Trekking : Vicente Perez Rosales N.Park
    Trekking Desolacion trail. Volcán Osorno, Petrohué falls,Emerald Lake. Trekking : Vicente Perez Rosales N.Park. Desolation Pass. Overview: Profile: Adventurous Difficulty level: medium. Season: November to late March Other trips you might find interesting: Solitario Hike Parque Nacional V, Perez Rosales. Cochamo Walls and river Hike, Tagua Tagua Hike. We depart early in mornig from Puerto Varas to Petrohué on the shores of Todos Los Santos Lake. On our way to the lake, we’ll pass through areas that are the mouths of the rivers which flow from the sides of Osorno Volcano. On warm days, it is possible to see what appear to be dust clouds arising from the flanks of the volcano. In reality, these are ash clouds raised by the flowing waters making their way down the flanks of the volcano. We will cross vast areas of black ash mixed with the lashes from the Calbuco eruption in 2015 and have been brought down by the glacial melt. You will appreciate the might of the volcano as you see the results of the ash flows experienced during its eruptions. One can only imagine what it must have been like during its periods of activity. Leaving Petrohué, we head upward toward the base of Volcano Osorno (8,730 feet). Our trek takes us through Osorno’s volcanic canyons where amazing rock formations are etched out of the canyon walls by the melting snows and glaciers of Osorno. As we head upwards to Desolation Pass, at an altitude of 5,610 feet between the Osorno and Cerro La Picada volcanoes, we will also see a wide variety of lava formations created by the lava flows that built Osorno.

  • Impact of the 1960 Major Subduction Earthquake in Northern Patagonia (Chile, Argentina)
    ARTICLE IN PRESS Quaternary International 158 (2006) 58–71 Impact of the 1960 major subduction earthquake in Northern Patagonia (Chile, Argentina) Emmanuel Chaprona,b,Ã, Daniel Arizteguic, Sandor Mulsowd, Gustavo Villarosae, Mario Pinod, Valeria Outese, Etienne Juvignie´f, Ernesto Crivellie aRenard Centre of Marine Geology, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium bGeological Institute, ETH Zentrum, Zu¨rich, Switzerland cInstitute F.A. Forel and Department of Geology and Paleontology, University of Geneva, Geneva, Switzerland dInstituto de Geociencias, Universidad Austral de Chile, Valdivia, Chile eCentro Regional Universitario Bariloche, Universidad Nacional del Comahue, Bariloche, Argentina fPhysical Geography,Universite´ de Lie`ge, Lie`ge, Belgium Available online 7 July 2006 Abstract The recent sedimentation processes in four contrasting lacustrine and marine basins of Northern Patagonia are documented by high- resolution seismic reflection profiling and short cores at selected sites in deep lacustrine basins. The regional correlation of the cores is provided by the combination of 137Cs dating in lakes Puyehue (Chile) and Frı´as (Argentina), and by the identification of Cordon Caulle 1921–22 and 1960 tephras in lakes Puyehue and Nahuel Huapi (Argentina) and in their catchment areas. This event stratigraphy allows correlation of the formation of striking sedimentary events in these basins with the consequences of the May–June 1960 earthquakes and the induced Cordon Caulle eruption along the Liquin˜e-Ofqui Fault Zone (LOFZ) in the Andes. While this catastrophe induced a major hyperpycnal flood deposit of ca. 3 Â 106 m3 in the proximal basin of Lago Puyehue, it only triggered an unusual organic rich layer in the proximal basin of Lago Frı´as, as well as destructive waves and a large sub-aqueous slide in the distal basin of Lago Nahuel Huapi.

Basement inheritance and Foreland basin progressive shallowing of an east-dipping subducting slab are important mechanisms of foreland partitioning, as Provenance dictated by the preexisting (pre-Andean) structural architecture and forelandward (eastward) advance of Late U-Pb geochronology Cretaceous arc magmatism. Previously recognized growth strata help define the timing of fold-thrust belt Hf isotopes shortening and retroarc basement-involved uplift, but the precise consequences for sediment routing remain poorly understood, with uncertainties in patterns of basin evolution before, during, and after shallowing and resteepening of the subducting slab.

We will stop to take pictures. We will travel into the past with an explanation of the German culture influence at the Museum of the Colonization. We will continue our trip for another 26 km along the North-East coast of the lake to the city of Puerto Octay. There, we will go up to a viewpoint to catch a full view of the surrounding volcanoes, and it will also give us the chance of leaving behind, as if in a postcard image, this beautiful lakeside area. Along the next 80 km the road will take us to Ranch "Rupanco", the biggest and also one of the most beautiful ones in Chile.
