Puerto Montt is a port city and commune in southern Chile, located at the northern end of the Reloncaví Sound in the Llanquihue Province, Los Lagos Region, 1,055 km to the south of the capital, Santiago. The commune spans an area of 1,673 km2 (646 sq mi) and has a population of 245,902 in 2017. It is bounded by the communes of Puerto Varas to the north, Cochamó to the east and southeast, Calbuco to the southwest and Maullín and Los Muermos to the west.

Founded as late as 1853 during the German colonization of southern Chile, Puerto Montt soon outgrew older neighboring cities due to its strategic position at the southern end of the Chilean Central Valley being a gateway city into Chiloé Archipelago, Llanquihue and Nahuel Huapi lakes and Western Patagonia.

Puerto Montt has gained renown and grown significantly due to the rise of Chile as the second largest salmon producer of the world during the 1990s and 2000s. However, the Chilean salmon aquaculture crisis of the late 2000s resulted at least temporarily in severe unemployment and exposed weaknesses in the local economy. The city's cultural heritage mixes elements of Chiloé culture with German heritage although the city has attracted a significant number of newcomers from all over Chile in the last 30 years due to employment opportunities.

Not only Europe can boast the enchanting nature of the Norwegian fjords, but also Chilean fjords. The Chilean fjords consist of islands of various sizes, islets, enormous boulders, and ice formations emerging from the water, showcasing a range of colors — from snow-white to greenish.

The Chilean fjords delight visitors with their landscapes, where land and sea merge into a labyrinth of islands, fjords, rivers with tributaries, lakes, and hills covered in ancient trees.

The Chilean fjords are a unique place that has miraculously escaped human interference. When the mist dissipates under the sun, a magnificent panorama of the Andes, the cold waters of the Pacific Ocean, and lush emerald forests unfolds before your eyes.
