Located at the southern tip of the Aysén Region, Caleta Tortel is one of the most unique destinations in Chilean Patagonia.

Nestled between the mouth of the imposing Baker River and the southern fjords, this town stands out for its unique architecture: an intricate network of more than 7 kilometers of walkways, stairways, and bridges built entirely of Guaitecas cypress wood, with no streets or vehicles.

Designated a “Zona Típica” (Traditional Area), it invites visitors to sail to the mystical Isla de los Muertos and explore the snowdrifts of the Southern Ice Fields.

The warmth of its community, its timber-working culture, and its pristine landscapes make Tortel an invaluable stop on exclusive, heritage-focused international itineraries.
