Itinerary to El Yeso Reservoir and Cajón del Maipo

Just a little more than an hour from Santiago de Chile, is located the Cajón del Maipo. This is one of the most interesting areas for tourists visiting this region. 

This magnificent place offers beautiful natural landscapes that escape from the hustle and bustle of the capital. Therefore, we invite you to discover the beauty of the Andes Mountains by visiting one of our favorite destinations: El Cajón del Maipo.

    The tour

    The adventure begins when you are picked up at the hotel and taken by car to the first stop: San José de Maipo, a small and picturesque village founded in 1792, located 48 kilometers from the capital and declared a national monument. 

    Then, you will continue the tour to El Yeso Reservoir, located 2,500 meters above sea level. It is the main water reservoir of Santiago de Chile and its turquoise waters, with the wonderful Andes Mountains as a backdrop, are the protagonists of this natural spectacle.

    During the trip you will be able to appreciate a hanging glacier, an amazing Andean mountain system, and the typical flora and fauna of the area, such as foxes, eagles and Andean condors.
