Description
We will leave your hotel at 7:00 AM to head into the mountain range for around 1 hour. Upon arrival, we start walking through La Parva ski center, beginning to gain altitude. Taking breaks to catch our breath and admire the beautiful surroundings, we continue until reaching the summit of Cerro La Parva at 4,047 m (13,000 ft).
At the summit, we will eat the provided lunch box (a hearty sandwich, snack bar, fruit, and chocolate) before starting our descent. In total, we will hike for 8 hours (12.4 km with 1,150 m of elevation gain / 7.7 miles and 3,770 ft). On the way back, you can relax and enjoy the views of the Santiago Valley as we drive you to your hotel.

Important Information
- Even though it is an high altitude hike for beginners, it is still a difficult hike due to the elevation and the lack of oxygen at this altitude.
You may experience Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), which is a common discomfort, but if it exceeds normal parameters, the guide will make the decision to descend.
In case of winter conditions, snowshoe rental is required at an additional fee of 20,000 CLP per person.
