Overview

  • Ride three hours into the Andes foothills just 30 to 40 minutes from your Santiago hotel. Our base is in Lo Barnechea, at the foot of the mountains, so you spend your time riding, not in traffic.

    Calm Chilean horses are matched to your height and weight, and no riding experience is needed. You climb through native forest to a high plateau facing glacier-capped peaks, where we stop for a picnic of local cheeses, chocolate and fresh juice. Andean condors often soar overhead.

    This is always a private experience with a bilingual guide and a local arriero (Chilean horseman). Choose the option with wine to finish at the ranch with Chilean wine, cheese and charcuterie. Riders up to 110 kg (242 lbs) are welcome.

Activity itinerary

Santiago

  • 4h
This trip starts at a private farm located in a nice native forest at the foothills of the Andes. These Chilean horses will be prepared for you with Chilean saddles, they are easy-going and used to walking on these trails. We will ride for around 1,5 hours gaining breathtaking views. We will make a nice snack in our break before the descent. You will enjoy the amazing scenery and you will be surrounded by very beautiful mountains (in winter covered by snow) also you will have the opportunity to share with the arrieros (the Chilean cowboy) and live the Arriero culture. Highlights: 20 minutes from Santiago / great Andean views / reach 2000 metres altitude Horseback riding time 1.5 hours of ascent and 1.5-hour descent plus 30 to 45 minutes of break at the lookout.
