Quellon
Quellón is a town of 24,000 people at the southern end of Chiloé Island. It is a fishing and transportation hub for the area and not a particularly interesting tourist destination, although you might want to experience the thrill of standing at the southern extreme of Chile's longest road, the Ruta 5, which is marked with a plaque and monument just outside of town at Punta de Lapas.| Tap on a place to explore it |
