Iom Montalba Jofré

Tourism

Born and raised at the foot of the Villarrica volcano, he has always been connected to hard weathers. From a young age, he also witnessed the arrival of tourists to his hometown and how they sought new experiences and incredible places to discover in our country.

With 17 years of experience in the Aysén region, 10 of which have been in Chile Chico, Iom has worked as a guide at Patagonia Park, founded by Douglas Tompkins. Throughout his career, he has led tours through the Chacabuco Valley, distinguished by his keen interest in the remnants left by the region’s ancient inhabitants, dating back 12,000 years, as well as the unique shapes and colors of the hills and rock formations. His deep knowledge of the territory and passion for history and nature make him a key reference for those looking to explore and understand this region.
