Short Trip

Horse riding chile in the andes

Setting off into the pre-cordillera mountains

Camping in the mountains gets you closer to nature and has its special delights. We offer from one night/2days to four or five days going out from El Toyo in spring and early summer, or from the same or longer in the high Andes going out from Banos Morales.

Camping will always be near a river with pools for bathing on summer evenings. We make a campfire to cook on and sit round in the evening. The food is good and the location unimaginably beautiful and the weather in summer is usually faultless. In late spring and summer there are flowers and birds and usually you will see a condor somewhere on the trip. See more on Prices

    Will be in Santiago on March 16 & 17, 2012. On March 17th need to be at the airport for a 7:00 p.m. flight (need to be there 2.5 hours early, so at the airport by 4:30 p.m.).
    So, a couple of questions:
    1. Would it be possible to be back to Santiago for 4:30 on an overnight trip?
    2. What equipment do you supply and what would we need to bring?
    3. What would cost be for 3 adults?
    Gracias de Canadá
