IRONMAN Puerto Varas
IRONMAN 70.3 Puerto Varas is on 4 April 2027 in the Chilean lake district, with the swim in Lake Llanquihue under the Osorno volcano and the bike and run working the country roads and lakefront around the town.
The date is the thing to weigh. Early April is autumn this far south, so the water is cold, the days are shortening and rain is a realistic outcome. If you want the same region in warm weather, IRONMAN 70.3 Pucón in January is the other option, and the two race very differently as a result.
What you get in exchange is a quiet, beautiful race in a German-settled town, with none of the peak-season crowding and prices.
Getting there means Santiago and then a flight to Puerto Montt, which is about half an hour from Puerto Varas by road.
