Magallanes National Reserve, Protected conservation area near Punta Arenas, Chile.
The reserve spans 19,625 hectares of land with native trees such as Lengas and Coigües, reaching elevations between 350 and 600 meters.
Established in 1932, the reserve gained additional significance in 1843 when German naturalist Bernardo Phillippi discovered coal deposits in the region.
The reserve functions as an educational center where visitors learn about local ecology through guided interpretive trails and nature observation stations.
Access requires driving through a gravel road from Salvador Allende Avenue in Punta Arenas, with no public transportation options available to reach the site.
The reserve houses populations of Magellanic Woodpeckers, Andean foxes, and Darwin's leaf-eared mice within its protected boundaries.
