UP IN THE ANDES
Looking at a map of South America it’s easy to think that Chile is all about the ocean. With more than 4000km of Pacific Ocean coastline and only 177km wide, the potential for good surf is second to none but the desert and the mountains also offer an attractive playground for nature lovers.
By the time winter break comes in July we have already investigated the possibility of taking our boards to the high altitude lakes in the Cordillera of the Andes by the Bolivian border. The colors we had witnessed in pictures and the perspectives of paddling surrounded by such landscapes was enough to get the whole family packed up and ready to go.
