Puerto Aysen


We spent 2 days in the small town of Puerto Aysen between leaving Coyhique and getting the ferry from Puerto Chacubuco, we did try to stay in Chacubuco but there was no campsite and only 1 hotel, which was a five star and slightly out of budget.
Puerto Aysen is not the prettiest of towns and doesn't see too much gringo action so we were a bit  of a novelty! We stayed in what could be loosely described as a hospedaje, but was more like a doss house for workers in the town. 
The surrounding countryside was fantastic though and seldom explored, waterfalls and condors everywhere and the odd glacier here and there.


Wildman in the wilds!

Another day another glacier






Thistles grow in Chile too!
