Chile is almost 2,700 miles long, stretching from the dryest desert in the world to the most southerly mainland in the world, yet, its average width is only 109 miles. The diversity is incredible with active volcanos (the worlds highest volcano at 6,891m is in Chile), geysers, earthquakes, vineyards and glaciers. This in turn is reflected in the diversity of climates and wildlife.
If a map of Chile is superimposed on Europe, it stretches from the most northern point of Norway to the coast of Libya. The same exercise with Chile turned on its side, in relation to the US shows the length of Chile as equating to New Hampshire to San Francisco.
