fort bulnes印象

Its a lovely trip to do from Punta Arenas. You drive along the coast to get there. We saw some cormorants and dolphines on the journey. The fort is well marked and you can get a lot of information and stories in the park. Every thing is written in spanish and in english. We even had a guided tour which was for free (spanish). And we walked in the nearby forest and along the coast. But the entrance for foreigners is relatively high which is sad.Nearby the fort you can find an other place of history (take the third exit at the roundabout) and on the roundabout is the "middle point of chile" marked with a nice sign.

Fort Bulnes is about an hour drive outside of Punta Arenas overlooking the Straits of Magellan. You won't find a more inhospitable piece of land. Climb up into the watch tower for a view over Tierra del Fuego. The fort is a sobering reminder of the extent to which nations went to claim territory, even in desolate places like this. As you drive back to Punta Arenas, keep an eye out for the numerous shipwrecks that line the coast.

Fort Bulnes is the historic reconstruction of the earliest settlement by Europeans at the southern tip of South America. In good weather it offers beautiful views of the surrounding bays and islands. It is easy to access by a daily tour leaving from the park headquarters building on Av. Mayo about 100 meters north of Av. Independencia, very near the cruise ship tender dock. The park headquarters offers a 1030am tour of the Fort for 20,000CP (about 33 USD) including minibus and entry fee, or a combined city and fort tour at 900am for 30,000 CP (about 50 USD). Both tours return around 300pm. For more info see the park website www.phipa.cl and for reservations email reservas@patagoniahsa.com. The tour van, driver, and guide are top notch. A new visitor center at the fort is currently under construction, but the present visitor center, cafe, and bathrooms are already quite nice. I did this tour as a less crowded alternative to the usual penguin tours when I was on a recent Cape Horn cruise. I am glad I did it.

The fort has replicas of the original buildings, quite bare. I think it'd be nice to have more visual explanations on how the people survived, the food, cooking etc. The paths from the fort to the look out are great! You can see the Straits of Magellen from many angles. Beautiful!

Our tour to Fort Bulnes consisted of the two of us and our guide who also was the driver. We managed to learn a lot from him using a combination of Spanish and English. At the Fort itself, a guide gave us lots of information (in English) about the history of Fort Bulnes. We enjoyed walking on the trails.

I guess that, as a historical site, it is worth visiting, although the fort is actually fake. The whole thing was built as a replica. The worst thing though is the INSANE entrance fee of 12000 CLP, equivalent to about 20 usd. Per person, that is!!! I mean, I know that many attractions in the area are expensive, but 12000 pesos to see a fake fort was really quite offputting. The guided tour was relatively good though, and te 40 minutes that takes are included in the 12000 pesos. Per person.

We drove there on a beautiful, clear day and spent a morning walking around near the water. Didn't take the tour, but it's fairly self-explanatory. Nice gift shop, too. Really lovely if you have the time.

The drive down was beautiful. We passed sea lions and dolphins along the shore. To know that you drive off the last bit of paved road on the South American continent, was kind of fun as well. The fort has been reconstructed using historical records. It is certainly interesting in understanding the settling of these very remote lands. The walks along the Straits were very informative as well, explaining how the Straits were formed. The views were also breathtaking. There was a gift shop and a cafe as well. Definitely worth a visit if you have the time.

Fort Bulnes was an interesting place to visit as it gave us a lot of information about early Chilean settlers in the South of Chile.It was very cold and windy but nevertheless we enjoyed having a look inside all the reconstructed buildings that make up the fort.The trip was organised by our hostel,, I think the company was called "Blue Laguna" or something similar.

We had our own vehicle which makes the trip easy and can be combined with some other important landmarks. The fOtt tells the story of the hardships faced by first settlers
