- Alfombras Puyuhuapi: The carpet workshop is the village’s best-known sight, set up by the founding German families, and it still produces hand-knotted wool carpets on large looms. A guided visit shows dyeing, knotting and finishing, and you can see weavers at work. Expect to pay around US$5 to 8 for a tour of about 45 minutes. Go on a weekday morning when the looms are running, and check opening times at the door since they shift seasonally.
- Casa Ludwig: This historic wooden house on the village grid recalls the settler families who arrived in the 1930s and now serves as a guesthouse with a cafe. Looking from the street is free, and a tea or coffee with cake costs roughly US$4 to 8. Late afternoon suits it best, when you can sit for an hour and read the local atmosphere. Allow 45 to 60 minutes.

- Costanera and the fjord shore: The waterfront path runs along the head of the Puyuhuapi fjord, with steep forested walls across the water and a small pier where locals fish and boats leave for the hot springs. It is free and takes 30 to 60 minutes at a slow walk. Early morning or the long summer evening gives calm water and the best chance of seeing sea birds. If you want to get out on the water, local operators run kayak outings from the shore for roughly US$30 to 60 for two to three hours.
