Cochrane Travel Guide
Chile
Cochrane is a small town in southern Chile, with a population of 2,867. It is a remote Patagonian settlement rather than a large urban centre, making it a practical base for exploring the surrounding area by road.
The town is served by Cochrane Airport (LGR). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so Cochrane is better suited to inland and rural travel than to a beach holiday.

Tipping: Tipping is customary in Chile for good service. While not legally required, it is widely practiced, especially in the service industry. Bills in restaurants may already include "propina", but it is optional and can be adjusted.
