"El Melocotón" Village

Distant 54 Km. from Santiago and 6 Km. from San José de Maipo, this village called El Melocotón arose when a group of cattle breeders needed to have a place with natural grazing land where to feed the cattle they were bringing from the high lands at the mountain range, nowadays it is a place with beautiful houses and wonderful landscapes, it has many attractive places among its hills where you can go for a stroll, hiking, climbing, watching the geology, fauna and flora and it's the departure point for excursions to Las Cucas or Coyanco creeks.

Here you can find an enterprise of adventure tourism, which prepares excursions; rafting, kayak and ducky trips by the river; horse rides, expeditions and other activities.

We recommend visiting the old train station, there has been set a locomotive called "La Panchita" and a wagon from the military railroad which ran from Puente Alto to El Volcán in the good old days.
