Contao, Coastal village in Hualaihué, Chile

Located on the southeastern shore of Reloncaví Sound, Contao spans across elevated terrain with direct access to Pacific waters and mountain ranges.

During the colonial period, Contao developed as a center for Fitzroya timber extraction, which shaped the local economic development in southern Chile.

The inhabitants of Contao maintain traditional fishing practices and agricultural methods that reflect the customs of Chile's Los Lagos Region.

Contao Airport provides transportation services to the village, while the Carretera Austral connects residents to other communities in the region.

The village combines maritime activities with mountain landscapes at an elevation of 7 meters above sea level along Chile's primary southern highway.
