Muñoz Gamero Peninsula

It is bordered on the west by the Smyth Channel and is connected to the Patagonia mainland by a narrow isthmus, between Skyring Sound to the south and the Obstrucción estuary to the north.

[1] The peninsula is home to Monte Burney and Gran Campo Nevado.

There have so far been two attempts to settle the peninsula, the first at fin de siècle and a second during the presidency of Eduardo Frei Montalva (1964–1970).
