From semi arid agriculture and vineyards to world class skiing in two hours. Vistas on the 28 switchbacks on the way up are stunning. We got sprained necks from watching two condors circling near us. Well worth the trip.

One of the most beautiful places in the middle region of Chile. It’s a little place not so mainstream but really clean and a perfect one for everyone who want to see something different and beautiful. Must have to see. PS: it’s a kind of romantic here, good place for couple.

An amazing road with views and goats, the 28 hairpin turns on the steep slopes leading to Portillo Ski resort and the border crossing to Mendoza Argentina is an amazing drive. It only takes 10-30 minutes and the views are sheer and awe inspiring. I get a bit nervous with heights but the road is wide and safe so I just focussed on the road ahead while my wife informed me of the scenery. A herd of goats appeared at the half way mark, slowing us down. There are a lot of trucks on this route so drive to conditions and don’t speed. You can see the old train route, now in ruins, with its impressive tunnels as you traverse the climb. The last toll on the road on the Chilli side has only an upcoming toll. If you’re going to Portillo and tell them this, “Voi a Portillo”, you don’t pay the toll.
