description
Escape from Santiago and venture 90 kilometers into the majestic Andes, discovering the colonial charm of San José de Maipo, a historic mining hub and gateway to the Andean wilderness. Disconnect from the city as you reconnect with the awe-inspiring natural world. A delicious lunch awaits on the banks of the vital Maipo River, surrounded by landscapes that inspire adventure. The day ends at the revitalizing Colina Hot Springs, where ancient volcanic waters embraced by the mountains renew your body and spirit. Back at Vitamonti Lodge, a gourmet dinner paired with Chilean wine welcomes you.
With the energy of a new day, embark on an exciting trekking expedition to the El Morado Hanging Glacier—a 10 km, 700 m elevation gain hike that rewards you with a spectacular suspended glacier deep in the Andes. After a nourishing snack in this overwhelming landscape, return to Santiago carrying the mighty beauty of the Andes with you.
