  • 5/5 Eduardo Bustamante V. 1 year ago on Google
    Interesante cerro, ideal para entrenar, 8k ida y vuelta aproximadamente, buenas vistas y panorámicas en 360, buen desafío en sendero resbaladizo, mucha gravilla fina suelta, ideal para sacarse la chu...., mucha vegetación, flora e insectos por doquier, se puede hacer un alargue a Loma La Vaca a 2000msnm y cerro cortadera si no me equivoco. Ojo que ya no se puede ingresar por el portón habitual, dueño lo cerró con cadena, pero si a 50 metros hay acceso por un sitio pelado que colinda con el camino. Recomendable para 4 horas de agradable y exigente caminata Profe Eduardo Bustamante Valdés +569 756 34 732 trekking amigable.

    (Translated by Google) We go up and the first part already warns you that it is a difficult hill. But it is best to go with other people because it is easy to get lost (if you are a first-time trekker) if you go alone or without a trekking app. The path is well marked. There are stones marked to follow the path and not get lost but on the way down it is difficult to find another way and get lost. The best thing for these cases is to go on a Saturday morning to run into many people. There are 3 stops, the first is after a difficult climb, the second is next to a giant stone and the third (top) seeing all Santiago. One takes up to 2 hours to climb and down can be 30 min (jogging) to 1 hour and a half (with care) It is of medium difficulty but in some points it makes you demand although not impossible, you have to be focused on those moments. Ideal to go in company or alone. (Original) Subimos y la primera parte ya te avisa que es un cerro difícil. Pero lo mejor es ir junto a otras personas porque es fácil perderse (si eres primerizo en treking) si uno va solo o sin alguna app de treking. El sendero es bien marcado. Hay piedras marcadas para seguir el camino y no perderse pero a la bajada es difícil encontrar otro camino y perderse. Lo mejor para estos casos es ir un día sábado por la mañana para toparse con mucha gente. Hay 3 paradas, la primera es después de una subida difícil, la segunda es al lado de una piedra gigante y la tercera (cima) viendo todo santiago. Uno se demora hasta 2 horas en subir y en bajar puede ser de 30 min (trotando) a 1 hora y media (con cuidado) Es de dificultad media pero en algunos puntos te hace exigir aunque no imposible, hay que estar concentrado en esos momentos. Ideal para ir en compañía o en solitario.

  • 5/5 Génesis R. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The site is nice. You must be very careful because it is easy to get lost (especially on the descents); There is signposting on the rocks with white dots to guide towards the trails, but very little. I recommend carrying slats or something to identify the path where they go up. I also advise you to bring walking sticks and good shoes, the sandy path makes you slip easily and is very steep, making it difficult to medium-high. Bring enough water and sunscreen. (Original) El sitio es lindo. Se debe tener mucho cuidado porque es fácil perderse (sobre todo en las bajadas); hay señalizacion en las rocas con puntos blancos para guiar hacia los senderos, pero muy escaso. Recomiendo llevar listones o algo para identificar el camino por donde suban. Tambien aconsejo llevar bastones y buenas zapatillas, el camino arenoso hace que resbales con facilidad y es muy inclinado, dificulta media alta. Llevar suficiente agua y protector solar.

    (Translated by Google) This hill represents a Trekking that can not be missed in Santiago. Any person with a normal physical condition could do it but if you are a first-time trekking it is advisable to take it with caution. You must have two hours for the ascent and an hour and a half for the descent if you want to walk quietly. Be careful that you cannot get water anywhere on the route so you have to come prepared. (Original) Este cerro representa un Trekking que no puede faltar en Santiago. Cualquier persona con un estado físico normal podría hacerlo pero si eres primerizo en trekking es recomendable tomarlo con cautela. Debes contar con dos oras para el ascenso y una hora y media para el descenso si es que quieres caminar tranquilo. Ojo que no puedes obtener agua en ninguna parte de la ruta por lo que hay que venir preparado.
