For Those Who Seek More Hours of Light

Madison, WI – – November 2018 — November 4 marks the end of Daylight Savings time and, with it, the loss of even more sunlight.

Those who long for the days of sun that can linger as late as 8:30 p.m. may want to consider a trip to the “other Hemisphere”.  Travel back to the warmer, sun filled days of early and late summer with Trek Travel’s newly updated Chile Bike Tour

This Southern Hemisphere destination provides adventurers with the opportunity to summer during winter as it reflects an “opposite season” experience for many around the world, including longer sun-filled days perfect for exploring by bike.

Trek Travel is exploring the entire length of Chile’s Lakes and Volcanoes District in this new trip. Guests will cycle beneath smoking volcanoes and beside pristine lakes, climb the spine of the Andes to the border of Argentina, soak in Huife Hot Springs and the Liucura River, and enjoy local Chilean cuisine, including asados (BBQ), sopaipillas, yerba mate, Carménère wine, and pisco sours.

“It’s no wonder that Chile has been named South America’s leading adventure tourism destination in the World Travel Awards,” says Trek Travel President Tania Burke. “Guests will shed their winter clothes and explore this adventurer’s paradise by bike.”

Equipped with a race-worthy Trek Domane SL 7 carbon road bike and Di2 electronic shifting, guests will bike into Villarrica National Park, ride a portion of Chile’s scenic Route of the Seven Lakes, and pedal to the tranquil Parque Futange Reserve.

Off bike, guests will relax in three unique settings including the Bauhaus-style Hotel Antumalal on Lake Villarrica, Nawelpi Lodge in the Patagonian rain forest and hte stunning architectural gem Hotel Awa by Lake Llanquihue.

Trek Travel’s 7-day, 6-night Chilean Bike Tour is offered from January 13 – 19, January 26 – February 1, March 2 – 8, March 9 – 15 and March 22 – 28 and is priced from $4,699 per person.
