Puerto Fuy is a small village in Chile. It is located in the Los Ríos Region, within the area of Panguipulli.

This village is found on the western side of Pirihueico Lake. It is also a key spot on Route 203-CH, a road that leads to the Huahum Pass and into Argentina.


Getting Around Puerto Fuy

Puerto Fuy is an important place for travel because it is where a special ferry boat starts its journey. This ferry crosses Pirihueico Lake to connect with another village called Puerto Pirihueico. This makes it a busy spot for people traveling between Chile and Argentina.
