This 1-day Canyoning trip in Cajón del Maipo is a wonderful experience to enjoy Chile at its most.
Cajón del Maipo is an alpine canyon located in the southwest part of the Metropolitan region of Chile. It’s formed in the high grounds of the Maipo River, where it’s surrounded by mountains and big walls. It’s an hour away from Santiago de Chile, which makes it a popular place for tourism.
And this program will make the most out of this amazing nature feature. We’ll do much more than just admire the river, we’ll hike, jump and swim through it.
I’ll guide you through the beautiful landscapes of this canyon. We’ll start with a 45 minutes walk through a path surrounded by alpine forest and its local fauna. And when we’ll get to the canyon, we’ll descend the river with ropes and jumping into the natural ponds. We’ll even go down 15 meters cascades.
The activity will last around 4 to 5 hours, but you have to bare in mind the transport to and from Cajón del Maipo.
So request to book this program if you feel you’re up for this 1-day Canyoning trip in Cajón del Maipo. This is a great opportunity to enjoy nature from inside!

Mountain Guide
UIAGM/IFMGA Mountain Guide from Chile
Mountain guide and instructor from the Chilean Andinism Federation (FEACH) and certified Wilderness First Responder.
I’ve opened several climbing routes in Chile, and was one of the first and very few Chileans to summit Cerro Torre, Fitz Roy, Paine Grande and Torres del Paine.
I climbed almost all the technical mountain in Cajón del Maipo, in Central Chile, and did some of the most important routes in Yosemite, Indian Creek and Patagonia.
And regarding ski mountaineering, I skied down Mount Illimani and Huayna Potosí in Bolivia, and Cerro Castillo, Morado Norte and Sur in Chile.

Pierre
Nicolas is an excellent guide, with incredible mountaineering knowledge and technique (which was particularly worthwhile during our expedition when we encountered harsh winter conditions). His english is also very good. In short, I recommend this mountain guide.
Julie
My trip with Nicolas was perfect. He catered to my climbing preference and the hot springs at the end of day was exactly what we needed. I would definitely do it again! Thanks Nico for my first experience in climbing in Chile!
Charles
The guide did not know the route. We spent a lot of time trying to find the route. The climbing itself was good.
