- Pali-Aike National Park
Is a vast rock field of volcanic lava origin whose crater has remained active since the Pliocene. Throughout its 5030 hectares area tourists can admire extensive fields of basaltic lava, which have long determined the existence of sparse, almost desert-like vegetation.

The local fauna comprises skunks, grey foxes, guanacos and bats; there are also several low volcanic cones, lava formations and plots of land which resemble lunar landscapes. Also, prehistoric human remains about fifteen thousand years old were discovered in the Pali Aike and Fell caves. The park is located in the area of San Gregorio, province of Magallanes, just 196 kilometers north-west of Punta Arenas. .
