Chile

When to go

Long, skinny, Chile streaks across longitudes meaning a very varied climate. If your main destination is around the middle the milder seasons, spring and autumn are best, if you're heading for the chilly bottom the summer is most pleasant and if you're a skier then winter is the obvious choice. If you're coming to party and meet people consider February for the Carnival and festival season.
