Itinerary

Join us for a spectacular horseback ride in the Maipo Canyon.  

After a two-hour drive from Santiago into the Andes Mountains , we will arrive at a ranch in a small town on the banks of the Maipo River.  The ranch has more than 25 years of experience in ecotourism with 8,000 acres of mountain ranges, valleys, springs, and waterfalls. You will be guided by “arrieros” (local cowboys) as you take in the stunning vistas and admire the abundant flora and fauna from horseback. You will scale narrow mountain trails and have a short break on a plateau while enjoying the gorgeous surroundings.  You may even see some amazing Chilean condors flying high in the sky.  The riding time is approximately 2 hours. There is no experience needed. 

After riding, you will have time for lunch (not included) followed by a visit to the Concha y Toro Wine Vineyard in the picturesque town of Pirque for a tour and wine tasting.

• Please keep in mind that this is a mountain horseback ride. There are segments of the trail that are steep and narrow in both going up and down from the summit. This may be uncomfortable for those that have a fear of heights. If you would prefer a trail that is less steep – but does not reach the summit – please inform your guide. Also, if at any point during the ride you feel uncomfortable, you always have the option to get off the horse and walk down the trail.
