Bookmark & shareAs Chile's adventure sports capital, Pucón is truly smokin'!
Pucón is famous for three things: a divine blue lake, a perfectly conical volcano - which billows smoke and gives off an eerie red glow on clear nights, and access to every kind of adventure sport imaginable. Tourism might be rife, but this small town boasts great restaurants and even a casino.
