What our travellers think of their stay
Ten times the size of Loch Ness, Lake General Carrera marks the border between Chile and Argentina. There is more of it on the Chilean side than the Argentine, and it also has a different name in Argentina where is it called Lake Buenos Aires.
My suggestion
Take the time to go around the lake. You can cross it by ferry in two hours if you are in a hurry, but you will miss the pretty villages...Lovers of nature and wide open spaces will be delighted!
