Quantity

Active volcanoes, natural hot springs, and backcountry terrain—all in one week, combining Chillán Nuevo, Chillán Viejo, and Cerro Pirigallo.

Here, après-ski isn’t just a drink at a bar—it’s soaking in sulfur-scented hot springs while the snow keeps falling outside and time seems to stand still. It’s undoubtedly one of the most well-rounded destinations in the south-central region.

Testimonial

Thanks, Matias! We're already getting used to the new reality and back to work—it's been a tough adjustment, but we're all happy! It wouldn't be surprising if we did something similar in the near future; I'll let you know. Everyone was thrilled—thanks for everything and for taking care of all the details.

Hi Matias! We arrived safely in Santiago and are waiting for our next flight. Our time in Chile was amazing, and we’ll cherish these memories for the rest of our lives! Rimaya played a huge role in making this trip so memorable for us. Thank you for your guidance and responsiveness! You were such a huge help to us. We were so impressed by our experience with you and Rimaya, and we would absolutely work with you again and recommend you to friends and family.

Team Rimaya. A great day on the Puelo with Jorge. Caught two beautiful brown trout. The second one was enormous. Special thanks to the whole team and to Jorge for his expertise. Not only is he a trout whisperer, but he’s a great guy too. Thanks for arranging everything.
