Smart Traveller Chile

Be alert to your own security in Chile.

Exercise common sense and look out for suspicious behaviour, as you would in Australia.

On 3 April 2009, the Llaima volcano, located south of Santiago, erupted. The Government has restricted access to the Conguillio National Park and the surrounding area.

Eruptions from the Chaiten volcano in southern Chile resulted in considerable ash fall and evacuation of residents from the surrounding areas in May 2008. A Red Alert remains in place for the region of Los Lagos in Southern Chile and the city of Chaiten.

If you are in any of the regions affected, you should monitor local media and follow the advice of local authorities.
