What to expect

We are going to a unique area close to the city of Santiago, named Cajon del Maipo. We will leave Santiago towards San José de Maipo where if you want you can have a breakfast and drink a coffee in a traditional place and later start again the trip. We are going to continue the trip on the side of the Maipo river, one of the most important rivers of the region, up till the point where we will drop off the van. From this point we are going to start the walk with snowshoes, during this walk we will have the possibility to enjoy breath-taking landscapes covered by snow. After a walk of 4 km we will arrive to La Engorda valley, where we will reach a lookout where we will have the best view of San José Volcano. While staring at this stunning Valley, we are going to share a delicious lunchbox and we will have a moment to take pictures and to relax thanks to the peace of the mountains. Later we are going to start our walk back to the van where we will share a tasty glass of wine. In the late afternoon, evening we are going to arrive to Santiago with our bodies and our minds restored.
