A nice mix of hiking, local colour and a wine tasting.
The tour starts with a delicious simple breakfast (country eggs and local bread) at a local artist’s fascinating country house in the Maipo Valley.
Then a medium rated hike at the Alto de Cantillana - about 5-6k with lots of ups and downs (it’s not a circular walk). Good boots are recommended, and sunscreen on a hot day.
Then either a BBQ during the hike or a country restaurant at the end. We went for the latter - to sample local dishes and get some salad & veggies!
Then to a Maipo Valley winery for a tour and a tasting. We went to the superb Undurraga winery - very much recommended!
Our guides were Felipe and Pilar, who were both very knowledgeable about the area and the wines.
