Romantic Puerto Varas will bring the charms of southern Chile to Festuris 2025

The charming city of Puerto Varas, in southern Chile, confirms its presence at Festuris Gramado 2025, with a highlight in the Wedding Area, focused on the wedding and honeymoon market. Located at the entrance to Chilean Patagonia, on the shores of the majestic Lake Llanquihue and under the imposing Osorno Volcano, the city brings to the event all the charm of a destination that combines exuberant nature, cultural tradition, and high-standard hospitality.

In Puerto Varas, tourism is the heart of the city. With more than 380 registered tourist services, the sector has established itself as the main local industry, offering authentic experiences in accommodation, gastronomy, leisure, and adventure. From five-star hotels to cozy cabins, to a rich circuit of restaurants and bakeries with German influences, every detail is designed to provide memorable stays.

Just a 1 hour and 40 minute flight from Santiago, Puerto Varas is accessible, charming, and surrounded by breathtaking landscapes. The city is the gateway to Vicente Pérez Rosales National Park, where visitors will find centuries-old forests, crystal clear rivers, volcanoes, and waterfalls. Adventure sports such as rafting, fishing, hiking, and skiing are available for those who want to experience nature in its purest form.

The natural scenery is complemented by a rich cultural heritage, inherited from the German settlers who arrived in the region in the 19th century. This influence is visible in the wooden architecture, historic churches, and warm hospitality of the local population. With nine National Monuments and a preserved Historic District, the city offers a true journey into the past.

RELATIONSHIP WITH GRAMADO - Since 1991, Puerto Varas and Gramado have maintained a sister city relationship, marked by strong cultural and tourist ties. Both share a history linked to German immigration, which is reflected in their architecture, cuisine, and community values. And, like Gramado, Puerto Varas invests in quality, charm, and sensory experiences that delight visitors from all over the world.
